Okay, here's what I'll do before 1.4 (which, as you can see will have
very little changes over 1.3.3, except for the machine-independent
stuff):
- Add a stackcheck occasionally (probably when the cmd-dot check is
  done),
- Add macfs.chdir()
- Add PIL
- Check how much work adding the numeric stuff is.
- Add some stuff Just did, if it is finished and OK with him (the
  class browser, a much nicer EditPythonPrefs).
- See if there is some way to make tcl/tk a better citizen memory-wise
  (even if I can only make python crash with an "out of memory"
  dialog it would be better than the current situation).

The sprocket stuff I haven't looked at at all, maybe someone else
could have a look whether this is (a) interesting and (b)
implementable?

Also, if someone feels the urge to have a look at a CFM68K python (how
come I have this deja-vu feeling:-): please please please.

Oh yes: nobody had any comments on the documentation and
examples. Does this mean nobody looked at them or that everyone loves
it as it is?
