request.debug will resolve to a form variable for all code except
code that lies in a 'zope.*' package. Eventually, we should deprecate
form variable access through getattr. I'm leaving a big comment to remind
us of that.

as request.debug will now always point to the debug flags object.

See http://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope-dev/2006-April/027408.html for the

when used on anything other than an app object.
Also added an 'environ' argument if you want to use something

ZopeTestCase.makereqeust.
Added unit tests for this stuff.

- Added placeless.py for Z3-style setup. Thanks to Whit Morriss.

generate a deprecation warning when convenience function in StructuredText

version 1.3.3.

      - Applied patch by Yoshinori Okuji to fix some XML export/import
        problems

        any code related to the ZClasses (re)distribution mechanism is
        removed.

- I still believe this was the Right Thing to do, but not everybody agrees
