    same time, some mappings not sanctioned by IANA were removed.
  
  - The "compiler" package has been brought up to date to the state of
!   Python 2.2 bytecode generation.  It has also been promoted from a
!   Tool to a standard library package.  (Tools/compiler still exists as
!   a sample driver.)
! 
! - pydoc and inspect are now aware of new-style classes;
!   e.g. help(list) at the interactive prompt now shows proper
!   documentation for all operations on list objects.
