***************
*** 33,44 ****
    OverflowError exception.
  
! - A new command line option, -D<arg>, is added to control run-time
    warnings for the use of classic division.  (See PEP 238.)  Possible
!   values are -Dold, -Dwarn, and -Dnew.  The default is -Dold, meaning
    the / operator has its classic meaning and no warnings are issued.
!   Using -Dwarn issues a run-time warning about all uses of classic
!   division for int, long, float and complex arguments.  Using -Dnew is
    questionable; it turns on new division by default, but only in the
!   __main__ module.  You can usefully combine -Dwarn and -Dnew: this
    gives the __main__ module new division, and warns about classic
    division everywhere else.
