Changelog

python2.7 (2.7.3-5ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low

  * Update to 20120910, taken from the 2.7 branch. Posix relevant patches:
    - Issue #13992: The trashcan mechanism is now thread-safe.  This eliminates
      sporadic crashes in multi-thread programs when several long deallocator
      chains ran concurrently and involved subclasses of built-in container
      types.
    - Issue #15801: Make sure mappings passed to '%' formatting are actually
      subscriptable.
    - Issue #15604: Update uses of PyObject_IsTrue() to check for and handle
      errors correctly.
    - Issue #15676: Now "mmap" check for empty files before doing the
      offset check.
    - Issue #15340: Fix importing the random module when /dev/urandom cannot
      be opened.  This was a regression caused by the hash randomization patch.
    - Issue #15841: The readable(), writable() and seekable() methods of
      io.BytesIO and io.StringIO objects now raise ValueError when the object
      has been closed.
    - Issue #12776, #11839: call argparse type function (specified by
      add_argument) only once.
    - Issue #15544: Fix Decimal.__float__ to work with payload-carrying NaNs.
    - Issue #15199: Fix JavaScript's default MIME type to
      application/javascript.
    - Issue #15477: In cmath and math modules, add workaround for platforms
      whose system-supplied log1p function doesn't respect signs of zeros.
    - Issue #15802: Fix test logic in TestMaildir.test_create_tmp.
    - Issue #15765: Extend a previous fix to Solaris and OpenBSD for quirky
      getcwd() behaviour (issue #9185) to NetBSD as well.
    - Issue #15615: Add some tests for the json module's handling of invalid
      input data.
    - Issue #15819: Make sure we can build Python out-of-tree from a readonly
      source directory.
    - Issue #15822: Ensure 2to3 grammar pickles are properly installed.
