New submission from Amaury Forgeot d'Arc:
This is a reminder for the comment on top of ceval.c:
/* XXX TO DO:
XXX speed up searching for keywords by using a dictionary
XXX document it!
*/
It was also suggested to disallow subclasses of str in variable names,
in order to optimize comparisons. This restriction is not necessary if a
dict lookup is used: comparisons are less frequent and will often
succeed when comparing pointers of interned strings.
