"The largest change in Python 2.1 is to Python's scoping rules.  In Python "
"2.0, at any given time there are at most three namespaces used to look up "

"The most significant change to Python 2.1 is that static scoping has been "
"added to the language to fix this problem.  As a first effect, the "

"simply, when a given variable name is not assigned a value within a function "

"One side effect of the change is that the ``from module import *`` and "
"``exec`` statements have been made illegal inside a function scope under "
"certain conditions.  The Python reference manual has said all along that "
"``from module import *`` is only legal at the top level of a module, but the "
"CPython interpreter has never enforced this before.  As part of the "
"implementation of nested scopes, the compiler which turns Python source into "
"bytecodes has to generate different code to access variables in a containing "
"scope.  ``from module import *`` and ``exec`` make it impossible for the "
"compiler to figure this out, because they add names to the local namespace "
"that are unknowable at compile time. Therefore, if a function contains "
"function definitions or :keyword:`lambda` expressions with free variables, "

"Authors of C extension modules should test their code with the object "

"func:`free` any more, and calling the wrong function to free memory will get "
"you a core dump.  For example, if memory was allocated using :func:"
"`PyMem_New`, it has to be freed using :func:`PyMem_Del`, not :func:`free`.  "
