[issue4557] array('c') in python 3.0 produces error, doc says it is ok

[jeff deifik]

New submission from jeff deifik <jeff at jeffunit.com>:

def char_sieve():
    char_data = array('c')
...

produces:
  File ".../prime.py", line 78, in char_sieve
    char_data = array('c')
ValueError: bad typecode (must be b, B, u, h, H, i, I, l, L, f or d)

However,
http://docs.python.org/3.0/library/array.html?highlight=array#module-array
says that 'c' is a legal value.
