WM_operator_poll() could fail in cases WM_operator_name_call() would succeed because calling the operator would setup the context before calling poll.
this would result in python raising an invalid error or menu items being greyed out.
now python can also check with an operator context:
bpy.ops.object.editmode_toggle.poll('INVOKE_SCREEN')
from mathutils.geometry import PolyFill
I couldn't find a way for python's inittab to do this so just inserting mathutils.geometry into sys.modules manually.
having the blend file as a part of the __file__ variable is not essential, this is fixed in python 3.2 so add an ifdef and don't use the blend file path for py older then 3.2.
Simple python benchmark shows this to be about 3x faster in the case where an update isn't needed.
This also speeds up rna function argument parsing, since each arg in a function call did 2 string lookups on the context which were never needed.
globbing vs explicit is discussed here.

Practical implications are:
- developers need to keep CMakeLists.txt files up to date.
- Users wont get strange linking errors if they build after a file is added, since CMake detects CMakeLists.txt is modified and automatically reconfigure.
Both stored the filename of the blend file, but G.sce stored the last opened file.
This will make blender act differently in some cases since a relative path to the last opened file will no longer resolve (which is correct IMHO since that file isnt open and the path might not even be valid anymore).
Tested linking with durian files and rendering to relative paths when no files is loaded however we may need to have some operators give an error if they are used on the default startup.blend.
- made interface, windowmanager, readfile build without unused warnings.
- re-arranged CMake's source/blender build order so less changed libs are build later, eg: IK, avi
applied to python api and exotic.c, removed some args being passed down which were not needed.
keyword args for new mathutils types were being ignored when they should raise an error.
First commit to make some structure in doc/ directory.
- moved source/blender/python/doc -> doc/python_api
- moved source/gameengine/PyDoc/*.rst -> doc/python_api/rst
- modified accordingly sphinx_doc_gen.py and sphinx_doc_gen.sh
(later on I'll try alternative/ scripts by neXyon as promised :)
- source/gameengine/PyDoc/ is still there because contains epydoc stuff for the bge, will ask more and look into it later
- bpy.app.debug can now be set, removed bpy.data.debug (since this is not blendfile data)
- added bpy.app.tempdir, this is needed because the userpref temp dir isn't always set, $TEMP may be used instead and scripts need temp dir access.
now addon path is created using the same path functions and selecting where to save the startup.blend
also made some minor changes to path handling funcs.
- fixed WM_OT_context_cycle_int was causing problems with int overflow, now it cycles properly.
- rename QUOTE macro to STRINGIFY_ARG, and added STRINGIFY, which is used more often since it gives the value as a string.
When there are 2+ consecutive deform modifiers, the second modifier was getting incorrect normals, this only showed up for the displace modifier since its the only deform modifier that uses vertex normals.
It would have been easy to fix this by always calculating normals on deform modifiers, but slow.
To fix this I added a function to check if a deform modifier needs normals, so the normal calculation function only runs if there are 2 modifiers in a row and the second uses normals.
This means we can do operator drawing without passing self.properties as an argument.
while this check if quite specific, if this gives problems later on we should probably change operators not to try to mix an operator and its properties, it looks nice to a scripter but internally is not easy to manage.
* Fix var declaration in bpy_interface.c
* Remove forward declarations from py_capi_utils.h: they are unnecessary and break compiles (there were probably many warnings about this during compile with GCC).
- BKE_add_image_extension now sets the extension rather then appending. (no more image.jpg.tga)
- py/rna functions which have no return value now raise an error if a non-None value is returned.
- added back the red-alert flag so buttons can have a red highlight if somethings wrong.
The reason this didnt work is all sibclasses of pythons type() or PyType_Type in C, have to have their size set to sizeof(PyHeapTypeObject) rather then sizeof(PyTypeObject) as you might expect.
This is strange since its not a heap-class (defined in pythons runtime), but a static C type, so Im not sure about this, and cant find any documentation but it seems to work ok.
