[Marc-Andre Lemburg]

New submission from Marc-Andre Lemburg <mal at egenix.com>:

Mark Shannon on python-dev:

The following API functions were removed from 3.1.3:

PyAST_Compile
PyCObject_AsVoidPtr
PyCObject_FromVoidPtr
PyCObject_FromVoidPtrAndDesc
PyCObject_GetDesc
PyCObject_Import
PyCObject_SetVoidPtr
PyCode_CheckLineNumber
Py_CompileStringFlags
PyEval_CallObject
PyOS_ascii_atof
PyOS_ascii_formatd
PyOS_ascii_strtod
PyThread_exit_prog
PyThread__PyThread_exit_prog
PyThread__PyThread_exit_thread
PyUnicode_SetDefaultEncoding

And the following were added to 3.2,
of which only 2 are documented:

PyArg_ValidateKeywordArguments
PyAST_CompileEx
Py_CompileString
Py_CompileStringExFlags
PyErr_NewExceptionWithDoc    (documented)
PyErr_SyntaxLocationEx
PyErr_WarnFormat
PyFrame_GetLineNumber
PyImport_ExecCodeModuleWithPathnames
PyImport_GetMagicTag
PyLong_AsLongLongAndOverflow    (documented)
PyModule_GetFilenameObject
Py_SetPath
PyStructSequence_GetItem
PyStructSequence_NewType
PyStructSequence_SetItem
PySys_AddWarnOptionUnicode
PySys_AddXOption
PySys_FormatStderr
PySys_FormatStdout
PySys_GetXOptions
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed
PyType_FromSpec
PyUnicode_AsUnicodeCopy
PyUnicode_AsWideCharString
PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault
PyUnicode_FSDecoder
Py_UNICODE_strcat
Py_UNICODE_strncmp
Py_UNICODE_strrchr
PyUnicode_TransformDecimalToASCII

For added confusion PySys_SetArgvEx is documented as
new in 3.2, but exists in 3.1.3

Note that this only include functions.
The API also includes a number of macros such as
Py_False and Py_RETURN_FALSE, types ,
and data like PyBool_Type.
