resourceutil: correct the root path for file based lookup under py2exe This silly copy/paste error caused "Mercurial" to be truncated from "C:\Program Files". The fact that "helptext" and "defaultrc" are now in a subpackage of "mercurial" added it back on, and everything seemed to work. But that broke if not installed to the default directory, and also caused TortoiseHg to look at Mercurial's config files instead of its own.

Tue, 22 Oct 2019 16:04:34 +0900 rust-cpython: mark all PyLeaked methods as unsafe
Yuya Nishihara <yuya@tcha.org> [Tue, 22 Oct 2019 16:04:34 +0900] rev 44207
rust-cpython: mark all PyLeaked methods as unsafe Unfortunately, these methods can be abused to obtain the inner 'static reference. The simplest (pseudo-code) example is: let leaked: PyLeaked<&'static _> = shared.leak_immutable(); let static_ref: &'static _ = &*leaked.try_borrow(py)?; // PyLeakedRef::deref() tries to bound the lifetime to itself, but // the underlying data is a &'static reference, so the returned // reference can be &'static. This problem can be easily fixed by coercing the lifetime, but there are many other ways to achieve that, and there wouldn't be a generic solution: let leaked: PyLeaked<&'static [_]> = shared.leak_immutable(); let leaked_iter: PyLeaked<slice::Iter<'static, _>> = unsafe { leaked.map(|v| v.iter()) }; let static_slice: &'static [_] = leaked_iter.try_borrow(py)?.as_slice(); So basically I failed to design the safe borrowing interface. Maybe we'll instead have to add much more restricted interface on top of the unsafe PyLeaked methods? For instance, Iterator::next() could be implemented if its Item type is not &'a (where 'a may be cheated.) Anyway, this seems not an easy issue, so it's probably better to leave the current interface as unsafe, and get broader comments while upstreaming this feature.
