$OpenBSD: CHANGES.OpenBSD,v 1.1.1.1 2011/04/24 09:31:44 rpointel Exp $
As required by item 3 of the PSF license, here is a brief summary
of changes made to this version of Python for the OpenBSD package.
1. tempfile.py was patched to not try /usr/tmp as a possible
tempfile directory.
2. libpython is created as a shared library, and the pthread stack
size was doubled to support this with complex applications such
as Zope.
3. OpenBSD threads are used for threading support.
4. Regression tests have been taught about OpenBSD.
5. Support for MIPS64 and MIPS64EL systems has been enabled for the
_ctypes Module.
These changes are available in the OpenBSD CVS repository
<http://www.openbsd.org/anoncvs.html> in ports/lang/python.
