relevant changes in this version, compared to 0.7.1:
* Python 1.5 is not supported anymore; Python 2.0 or higher
is required.
* pyexpat now reports skipped entities.
* pyexpat now can combine subsequent character data events
into a single callback invocation; set the parser's
buffer_text attribute to true to enable this feature.
* pyexpat can now report namespace prefixes. Set the parser's
namespace_prefixes attribute to true to enable this feature.
* Various bugs in sgmlop have been fixed.
* Various DOM Level 3 symbolic constants have been added;
DOMStringSizeErr can now be spelled as DomstringSizeErr
again, and ValidationErr has been defined.
* Various DOM L1, L2 and L3 features have been added to
minidom: userdata, isSupported, getInterface, wholeText,
replaceWholeText, Entity, Notation
* minidom's .toxml now allows the caller to specify an encoding.
* The new module xml.dom.xmlbuilder implements the load part
of the DOM L3 Load/Store spec.
* The new module xml.dom.expatbuilder allows to create minidom
trees more efficiently, by using expat directly (rather than
using SAX). This is normally used via xml.dom.xmlbuilder.

* Minor bugs in xmlproc have been fixed.
* xml.sax.expatreader now invokes resolveEntity properly.
* The sgmlop SAX driver now invokes skippedEntity.

changes since last pkgsrc version (1.15):
1.17 - Added support for the BYTE1 (same as LOW) function.
Thanks to Timothy Lee for supplying this patch.
- Fixed path delimiter problem in include path. I used
DOS style '\' causing problems on *NIX.
Thanks to Timothy Lee for reporting this.
1.16 - Fixed problem with long macro names.
Thanks to Richard Gerrits for reporting this.
- Increased maximum identifier length to 64 (and no, this was
not the fix to the problem above :).
- Added support for using DOS (\13\10) files on *NIX systems.
- Change URL to www.tavrasm.org in help/README/...
that has some support for tables and frames, builds against openmotif, and
is also IPv6 capable! The name stands for "mbone" Mosaic, but that part
probably doesn't even work (yet).
[For real this time -- previous try misspelled the name of the directory.]
* escape blanks and other non-7bit graphic characters in startfile and similar
addresses to guard against interpreting the address as multiple lines
during a GET, etc (report by Ulf Harnhammar <ulfh@Update.UU.SE>) -TD
Bug Fixes:
Discard POST/PUT requests that have negative content-lengths. Make the
CanonicaliseHost() function robust to bad IP addresses. Fix some memory leaks,
free some unfreed memory. Don't give socket error using '-f' option. Fix
compilation on Cygwin. Fix IPv6 compilation on Solaris 9. Bug fix for v2.7c
Cookie change. Don't replace '//' in a URL path with '/'.
- Recognises Netscape 7 browser. Also better diagnosis of Windows
operating systems for Netscape and Mozilla browsers.
- New version of IIS How-To.
- Later UNCOMPRESS commands now correctly override earlier ones.
- SEARCHCHARCONVERT can now be turned on for multibyte character sets,
though it's not recommended.
- French report descriptions files.
- New versions of Polish and alternative Swedish language files.
- East Timor country code is now .tl.
