[Python-3000] Octal

[Jeff Bauer]

I really didn't want to add to the traffic on this
thread, but would like to keep leading zeros
from raising a SyntaxError.  If this passes, it
will look as archaic in retrospect as the original
decision to use '/' for integer division.  And I'll
have to wait until 2017 for this to get rescinded in
Python 4000.  ;-)

The coders who use octal (including myself) can
adapt.  There's not a lot of ambiguity when
int('042') evaluates to 42.
