helping for types that defined tp_richcmp but not tp_compare, although
that's when it's most valuable, and strings moved into that category
since the fast path was first introduced. Now it helps for same-type
non-Instance objects that define rich or 3-way compares.
For all the edits here, the rest just amounts to moving the fast path from
do_richcmp into PyObject_RichCompare, saving a layer of function call
(measurable on my box!). This loses when NESTING_LIMIT is exceeded, but I
don't care about that (fast-paths are for normal cases, not pathologies).
Also added a tasteful <wink> label to get out of PyObject_RichCompare, as
the if/else nesting in this routine was getting incomprehensible.
__getaddr(): Watch out for empty addresses that can happen when
something like "MAIL FROM:<CR>" is received. This avoids the
IndexError and rightly returns an SMTP syntax error.
parseargs(): We didn't handle the 2-arg case where both the localspec
and the remotespec were provided on the command line.

sure it doesn't break anything else. But if it does I'll notice tomorrow
when I try to build GRiNS:-)
Try to ensure that divmod(-0.0, 1.0) -> (-0.0, +0.0) across platforms.
It always did on Windows, and still does. It didn't on Linux. Alas,
there's no platform-independent way to write a test case for this.

presence of NaNs. So pass the issue on to the platform libm fabs();
after all, fabs() is a std C function because you can't implement it
correctly in portable C89.
should just avoid calling it in the first place to avoid waiting for a repr
of a large object like a dict or list. The result of PyObject_Repr() was
being leaked as well.

objects to save in gc.garbage. This should be the last change needed to
fix SF bug 477059: "__del__ on new classes vs. GC".
Note that this change slightly changes the behavior of the collector.
Before, if a cycle was found that contained instances with __del__
methods then all instance objects in that cycle were saved in
gc.garbage. Now, only objects with __del__ methods are saved in
gc.garbage.
