Summary: backward compat. on calendar.py
Initial Comment:
Many applications fails on 2.2 by this problem:
under 2.1.1 ---
>>> import calendar
>>> for n in calendar.day_abbr:
... print n,
...
Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun
>>> calendar.month_abbr[7:]
['Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec']
2.2 ---
>>> import calendar
>>> for n in calendar.day_abbr:
... print n,
...
Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat
Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri
Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu
Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed
Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue
Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon
Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun
Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun Mon Tue

Looks to me like adding
if item > 6 or item < -7:
raise IndexError
to the start of _localized_name.__getitem__ will do the
trick. (Should a test for non-integer items also be
added?)

Based on Guido's comment, categorized as 2.2.x and boosted
priority to 7.

You're right. Assigned to Barry.
I propose that the test suite should be changed to test for
this.
This would be a 2.2.1 bugfix candidate!
