 measurement.

! \item XXX Introduce two new flag bits that can be set in a PyMethodDef method
! descriptor, as used for the tp_methods slot of a type. These new flag
! bits are both optional, and mutually exclusive. Most methods will not
! use either. These flags are used to create special method types which
! exist in the same namespace as normal methods without having to use
! tedious construction code to insert the new special method objects in
! the type's tp_dict after PyType_Ready() has been called.
! 
! If METH_CLASS is specified, the method will represent a class method
! like that returned by the classmethod() built-in.
! 
! If METH_STATIC is specified, the method will represent a static method
! like that returned by the staticmethod() built-in.
! 
! These flags may not be used in the PyMethodDef table for modules since
! these special method types are not meaningful in that case; a
! ValueError will be raised if these flags are found in that context.

! \item It's now possible to define class and static methods for a C
! extension type by setting either the \constant{METH_CLASS} or
! \constant{METH_STATIC} flags in a method's \ctype{PyMethodDef}
! structure.

 \subsection{Port-Specific Changes}

 XXX write this

 XXX OS/2 EMX port

! XXX MacOS: Weaklink most toolbox modules, improving backward
! compatibility. Modules will no longer fail to load if a single routine
! is missing on the curent OS version, in stead calling the missing
! routine will raise an exception. Should finally fix 531398. 2.2.1
! candidate. Also blacklisted some constants with definitions that
! were not Python-compatible.

! XXX Checked in Sean Reifschneider's RPM spec file and patches.

 XXX OS/2 EMX port

! On MacOS, most toolbox modules have been weaklinked to improve

! Instead calling the missing routine will raise an exception. 

! Sean Reifschneider contributed an updated RPM spec file that can be
