[Python-checkins] CVS: python/dist/src/Modules structmodule.c,2.49,2.50

[Tim Peters]

Update of /cvsroot/python/python/dist/src/Modules
In directory usw-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv24968/python/Modules

Modified Files:
	structmodule.c 
Log Message:
The 'p' (Pascal string) pack code acts unreasonably when the string size
and count exceed 255.  Changed to preserve as much of the string as
possible (instead of count%256 characters).
