[Python-checkins] r67537 - in python/trunk: Lib/logging/__init__.py Misc/NEWS

New Revision: 67537

Log:
Took Nick Coghlan's advice about importing warnings globally in logging, to avoid the possibility of race conditions: "This could deadlock if a thread spawned as a side effect of importing a module happens to trigger a warning. warnings is pulled into sys.modules as part of the interpreter startup - having a global "import warnings" shouldn't have any real effect on logging's import time.
