+Fix lru_cache() errors arising in recursive, reentrant, or multi-threaded
+code. These errors could result in orphan links and in the cache being
+trapped in a state with fewer than the specified maximum number of links.
+Fix handling of negative maxsize which should have been treated as zero. Fix
+errors in toggling the "full" status flag. Fix misordering of links when
+errors are encountered.  Sync-up the C code and pure Python code for the
+space saving path in functions with a single positional argument. In this
+common case, the space overhead of an lru cache entry is reduced by almost
+half.  Fix counting of cache misses. In error cases, the miss count was out
+of sync with the actual number of times the underlying user function was
+called.
