[Python-Dev] Py3k and asyncore/asynchat

[Josiah Carlson]

As far as I can tell, the asyncore.py, asynchat.py, and updated
test_asyncore.py are good.  I have been using earlier variants in my
own projects (prior to their updating to pass the test suite) for
quite a few months now.  The updated modules provide better
performance, features, and support for real-world async socket
servers, never mind fixing more than a half dozen outstanding bugs.
