Update of /cvsroot/python/python/dist/src/Lib
In directory sc8-pr-cvs1.sourceforge.net:/tmp/cvs-serv31268
Modified Files:
shutil.py
Log Message:
Rewrite rmtree using os.walk to fix bug #1025127:
The shutils.rmtree() implementation uses an excessive amount of memory when
deleting large directory hierarchies. Before actually deleting any files, it
builds up a list of (function, filename) tuples for all the files that it is
going to remove.
