[...2309 lines suppressed...]
+ - Reformatted abstract.c to give it a more familiar "look" and fixed
+ many error checking bugs.
+ 
+ - Add NULL pointer checks to all calls of a C function through a type
+ object and extensions (e.g. nb_add).
+ 
+ - The code that initializes sys.path now calls Py_GetPythonHome()
+ instead of getenv("PYTHONHOME").  This, together with the new API
+ Py_SetPythonHome(), makes it easier for embedding applications to
+ change the notion of Python's "home" directory (where the libraries
+ etc. are sought).
+ 
+ - Fixed a very old bug in the parsing of "O?" format specifiers.
