Summary: SEEK_{SET,CUR,END} missing in 2.2.2

Initial Comment:
Python 1.5.2 used to define SEEK_{SET,CUR,END} both in
FCNTL.py and in posixfile.py

Python 2.2.2 obsoletes both of them (and the symbols
are no longer in FCNTL anyway).

A quick grep on the 2.2.2 tree shows me posixfile is
the only place that still defines the SEEK_* constants.
It seems to me it's wrong to drop the constants
(because a deprecated module will eventually be dropped).

This is now fixed in

os.py 1.84
libos.tex 1.149
NEWS 1.1226

Did a quick grep in python 2.3.4 - still only defined in
posixfile which is deprecated.

I didn't notice Martin's question - yes, the os module seems
to be the best place to put them.

Please, could you verify if this problem persists in Python 2.3.4
or 2.4?

If yes, in which version? Can you provide a test case?

If the problem is solved, from which version?

Note that if you fail to answer in one month, I'll close this bug
as "Won't fix".

Thank you!

Would you agree that these constants are best located in the
os module?
