Update of /cvsroot/python/python/dist/src/Lib/test
In directory sc8-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv14143/Lib/test

Modified Files:
	test_binascii.py 
Log Message:

binascii_a2b_base64: Properly return an empty string if the input was all
    invalid, rather than returning a string of random garbage of the
    estimated result length. Closes SF patch #703471 by Hye-Shik Chang.

Will backport to 2.2-maint (consider it done.)
