[New-bugs-announce] [issue5116] expose _CrtSetReportMode via the msvcrt module

[Mark Hammond]

New submission from Mark Hammond <mhammond at users.sourceforge.net>:

In bug 4804, there is some debate about how desirable it is for Python
to unconditionally disable all CRT assertions on Windows - however,
there is agreement that exposing the ability to enable and disable these
assertions via the msvcrt module is reasonable - so I'm attaching a
patch for exactly that.  I'd also like to nominate this for the 2.6 and
py3k branches.
