any reason why the

#ifdef MALLOC_ZERO_RETURNS_NULL

macro (in pyport.h) isn't set / doesn't take care of this?

(and is it just me, or does the strop.replace function allocate
a buffer, copy the result to that buffer, only to copy it into a
string and throw the buffer away?  no wonder u"".replace() is
30% faster than "".replace() ;-)

Cheers /F
