Summary: Fix for former/latter confusion in Extending documentation
Initial Comment:
Section 1.10 ("Reference Counts" in Extending Python)
has this:
"In C++, the operators new and delete are used with
essentially the same meaning and we'll restrict the
following discussion to the latter."
However, the following discussion uses malloc() and free
() (i.e. "the former"), not new and delete. Either this
should be corrected to say "the former" (as with the
attached one line patch), or the whole section should be
corrected to use new and delete.
