Update of /cvsroot/python/python/dist/src/Lib
In directory usw-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv30332

Modified Files:
	rexec.py 
Log Message:
SF bug 533625 (Armin Rigo). rexec: potential security hole

If a rexec instance allows writing in the current directory (a common
thing to do), there's a way to execute bogus bytecode.  Fix this by
not allowing imports from .pyc files (in a way that allows a site to
configure things so that .pyc files *are* allowed, if writing is not
allowed).

I'll apply this to 2.2 and 2.1 too.
