[Python-Dev] Patch reviews

[BJörn Lindqvist]

Here is a review of some patches:

* [ 1673759 ] '%G' string formatting doesn't catch same errors as '%g'

This patch is done, has been reviewed and works as advertised. Just
needs someone to commit it I think.

* [ 1100942 ] datetime.strptime constructor added

Doesn't apply cleanly, emits compiler warnings, but works as
expected. Lacks tests.

* [  968063 ] Add fileinput.islastline()

Good and useful patch (see the pup.py program) but lacks unit tests
and documentation.

* [ 1501979 ] syntax errors on continuation lines

Doesn't apply cleanly, but that is easy to fix. Needs someone to fix a
few minor flaws in it, but the patch works really well.

* [ 1375011 ] Improper handling of duplicate cookies

Fixes a fairly exotic bug in which Pythons cookie handling deviates in
an obscure way from Netscapes cookie specification. See the bug about
it at 1372650. As far as I can understand, the patch fixes the problem.

If someone still does the 5 for 1 deal, my patch is [ 1676135 ].
