New restriction on pow(x, y, z): If z is not None, x and y must be of

integer types, and y must be >= 0.  See discussion at

case, all arguments are converted to float and a float result is
delivered. For example, \code{10**2} returns \code{100}, but
\code{10**-2} returns \code{0.01}. (This last feature was added in
Python 2.2. In Python 2.1 and before, a negative second argument
would raise an exception.)
Python 2.2. In Python 2.1 and before, if both arguments were of integer
types and the second argument was negative, an exception was raised.)
If the second argument is negative, the third argument must be omitted.
If \var{z} is present, \var{x} and \var{y} must be of integer types,
and \var{y} must be non-negative. (This restriction was added in
Python 2.2. In Python 2.1 and before, floating 3-argument \code{pow()}
returned platform-dependent results depending on floating-point
rounding accidents.)

Core
- The 3-argument builtin pow() no longer allows a third non-None argument
if either of the first two arguments is a float, or if both are of
integer types and the second argument is negative (in which latter case
the arguments are converted to float, so this is really the same
restriction).
- The builtin dir() now returns more information, and sometimes much
more, generally naming all attributes of an object, and all attributes
reachable from the object via its class, and from its class's base
