latter to Jim's development version.  Hardest part turned out
to be teaching ZODB's setup.py how to "build" this version of
zope.testing (it has a lot of packages in a test directory,
where the latter is not itself a package).

Incidentally repaired an oversight in building zope.interface
too.

These config file keys changed:

section    key              was             is
-------    ---------------  --------------  -------------------------
zeo        address          socket-address  socket-binding-address
zeo        monitor-address  socket-address  socket-binding-address
zeoclient  server           socket-address  socket-connection-address

Use the same tag Zope trunk (2.8) is using.

A patch from Mark Hammond to repair a new Windows-specific
gimmick in ZEOServer.setup_win32_signals().

This gets called "in the middle" of the test, if specified.
ZRS 1.5 uses this to pass a callback that arranges to start a
ZRS secondary then.  ZRS had its own copy of this test, but
it's a miserable & messy test, and the copy it had failed in
5 different places when using ZODB 3.4 (it had gotten way of
synch with changes since ZODB 3.2).

Also removed all traces of the bizarre _x_dostore() method.
Not sure what that was about, but if the comments were right
we don't care about ZEO 1.0 anymore.

between old logging code and the use of Python's logging
package.

ZODB/tests/TransactionalUndoStorage.py, _exercise_info_indices():
Jeez Louise, the new tests I added for undoInfo+undoLog work fine
in ZODB, but break the ZRS tests(!).  They close the DB "too soon",
and in one of the ZRS scenarios that leaves a recovering secondary
without a primary to recover from.

Repaired, + new tests.

Irony:  While these are the only accurate docs that
exist, FileStorage doesn't actually implement it this
way.  Fixing that is the next step.

releases" -- had become impossible to follow.

There are no tests for this.

If a threaded transaction manager ever passed None to
the Transaction constructor's `synchronizers` argument, then
synchronizers registered later in the same transaction
were invisible to the transaction, and so their afterCompletion()
methods wouldn't get called when the transaction ended.

This is effectively a beta release, but I don't want to
take the time to do a full-blown release right now.

whenever TransactionManager.begin() is called.

Connection implements that, and changes its ISynchronizer
afterCompletion() method, to call sync() on its storage
(if the storage has such a method), and to process
invalidations in any case.

The bottom line is that storage sync() will get done "by
magic" now after top-level commit() and abort(), and after
explicit TransactionManager.begin().  This should make it
possible to deprecate Connection.sync(), although I'm not
doing that yet.  Made a small but meaningful start by
purging many sync() calls from some of the nastiest ZEO
tests -- and they still work fine.

Added more comments.  Changed some comments to English.
Renamed some attributes and methods for clarity.
Switched to using a Python WeakKeyDictionary instead of
rolling our own out of a Python dict and raw weakrefs.

Added new test checkSubtxnCommitDoesntGetInvalidations to
verify that a longstanding bug in subtransaction commit is
repaired.

Jim (Fulton) discovered this in ZODB 3.4's code, while implementing
savepoint/rollback.  Same bugs had been there at least since ZODB 3.1.

Also added news about the bug.

for savepoint management are:

- All savepoints for a transaction should be invalidated when the
  transaction commits or aborts

- If a savepoint is rolled back, then all savepoints after it within 
  a transaction must be invalidated.

We previously implemented these requirements by organizing transaction
savepoints into a doubly linked list.  This was overkill.  We didn't
have need for such fine-grained ordering.  This strategy had the
disadvantage that it kept all savepoints around until the transaction
ended.  Savepoints could be expensive to keep and it's possible that
some applications could keep a lot of them.

The new stragey is to:

- Keep weak references to savepoints.  We can forget about savepoints
  that the application isn't using.  Any resources used by these
  savepoints can be freed.

(We have to keep a strong reference to the last savepoint used for
  a subtransaction.)

- We assign indexes to savepoints within a transaction.  When a
  savepoint is rolled back, in addition to invalidating that
  savepoint, we also invalidate savepoints with a higher index.

A side effect of this change is that code using the savepoint API
should interfere less with code using subtransactions.  Of course, we
really need to phase out code that uses subtransactions.

It is likely that we can leverage this change in strategy to speed
creation of ZODB connection savepoints.  Creating a ZODB connection
savepoint now requires copying the savepoint storage index.  This
index could become large.  If applications aren't holding on to old
savepoints, then it is possible that we could avoid this copy.

returns an iterable producing the registered beforeCommit hooks.

just the savepoint being rolled back because later savepoints
might involved data managers that hadn't joined when the savepoint
being rolled back was created.

Now, when a data manager joins and we have savepoints, we create a
data manager savepoint for the new data manager and add the
datamanager savepoint to all previous transaction savepoints.  Note
that this data manager savepoint can be a special savepoint that just
calls abort on the data manager when it is rolled back.
