The following patches (relative to 1.5.2b1) enable Python dynamic
loading to work on NetBSD platforms that use ELF (presnetly mips and
alpha systems).  They automaticly determine wether the system is ELF or
a.out rather than using astatic list of platforms so that when other
NetBSD platforms move to ELF, python will continue to work without
change.

Donn Cave tells me the PyImport_BeImageID() function isn't needed anymore.

Thanks to Chris Herborth, the thread primitives now have proper Py*

names in the source code (they already had those for the linker,
through some smart macros; but the source still had the old, un-Py names).

Replace fprintf(stderr, ...) with PySys_WriteStderr(...).

On Win32, use

1998-10-08T01:44:41+00:00

LoadLibraryEx(pathname, NULL, LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH)
to search dependent DLLs in the directory of the pathname.

Renamed thread.h to pythread.h.

(Also removed whitespace after # in some BEOS related cpp directives.)

In FreeBSD when using ELF, an underscore is needed in front of the

1998-09-30T14:34:52+00:00

function name.  (Vladimir Kushnir by way of Thomas Gellekum.)

Mac-specific mod to enable aliases on import paths.

This is a patch that Bill Bummgarner did for 1.4 that hasn't made its
way into the distribution yet.  This is important if you want to use
the ObjC module.
