Change {datadesc} environments with empty descriptions to \dataline{}s; this
...
removes extra vertical space from the list of names, and makes the display
more similar to that used in the socket module, where several constants share
a description.

In description of sound_similar(), break up the markup for long

\code{} at each embedded space, so that the words will wrap. This keeps
it from being too ugly.

In description of __import__, second paragraph, break up the markup for long

\code{} at each embedded space, so that the words will wrap. This keeps it
from running off the side of the page, and is only slightly weird.

Minor stuff:

Explain what happens when a negative shift count is used (what exception).
Mark the title "Python Reference Manual" as \emph{}, for consistency.
"info" --> "information"
Tell more about the data attributes of file objects, using the {datadesc}
environment.
When refering the user to the language reference for information about
internal types, tell what internal types to expect information on.

In add_label_data() description, use "\samp{}" instead of "``\code{...}''"

to indicate the interpreted letters from the format string.

Use "\samp{...}" instead of "``\code{...}''" when showing markup fragments
...
in the running text.
For computed attribute and method names (where there's a \var{} part to
the name), use the non-indexing forms of \datadesc{} and \funcdesc{}.
This doesn't change the printed output, but removes 3 rejections from the
makeindex run and allows the LaTeX2HTML support to exclude these from the
index.

New version of xmllib from Sjoerd.
...
The main incompatibility is that the error reporting method is now
called as
parser.syntax_error(msg)
instead of
parser.syntax_error(lineno, msg)
This new version also has some code to deal with the <?xml?> and
<!DOCTYPE> tags at the start of an XML document.
The documentation has been updated, and a small test module has been
created.
