0.9.9
-----

New features:

  - C++ struct declarations, 'new' operator, and del for C++ delete.

  - As well as the 'not None' modifier for extension type arguments, there
    is now 'or None' to explicitly allow passing None. It is planned to make
    'not None' the default in a future version. For now, a warning is issued
    (once per Pyrex run) if you do not specify one or the other.

  - Extension types may have a 'nogc' option to suppress GC support.

Modifications:

  - Exceptions caught by an except clause are no longer put into the thread
    state and cannot be retrieved using sys.exc_info(). To access the caught
    exception, it must be bound to a name in the except clause. A third name
    can be supplied to capture the traceback.

  - PyString_InternFromString is now exposed under the name 'cintern' because
    it is not a complete substitute for 'intern' (it can't handle strings
    containing null bytes). [John Arbash Meinel]

  - Disabled size check for cimported types because it was generating too
    many false positives in the field.

  - Added __fastcall calling convention. Also no longer assuming that an
    unspecified calling convention is the same as __cdecl.

  - Operations between signed and unsigned ints of the same size now have
    an unsigned result.

  - Py_ssize_t now ranked between long and long long.

  - Declaration of __new__ in an extension type is now an error, in
    preparation for introducing new semantics.

  - Added size_t type, and made sizeof() return it.

Bug fixes:

  - When casting the result of a function call to a Python type, the
    function could be called twice. [David Martinez]

  - __Pyx_GetException was not taking account of the fact that the traceback
    could be NULL.

  - sizeof(module.typename) did not work. [Daniele Pianu]
