Changes:
-Added new builtin function bool() and new builtin constants True and
False to ease backporting of code developed for Python 2.3. In 2.2,
bool() returns 1 or 0, True == 1, and False == 0.
-C API: A type can now inherit its metatype from its base type.
-Fixes
LDFLAGS to the linker command when linking a python extension. This lets
us pass the right flags to correctly find libraries required for certain
extensions, e.g. zlib.so.
as suggested by Johnny Lam
-don't try to build the "locale" module - it doesn't work anyway
-pull up a fix from Python CVS to get more consistent math exceptions
(eg pow(1e-200,2) vs. math.pow(1e-200,2))
This will be part of 2.2.1.
