Use 'const char *' rather then the C++ 'STR_String' type for the attribute identifier of python attributes.
Each attribute and method access from python was allocating and freeing the string.
A simple test with getting an attribute a loop shows this speeds up attribute lookups a bit over 2x.
- Reset hit object pointer at end of frame of touch sensor to avoid returning invalid pointer to getHitObject().
- Clear all references in KX_TouchSensor::m_colliders when the sensor is disabled to avoid loose references.
- Test GetSGNode() systematically for all KX_GameObject functions that can be called from python in case a python controller keeps a reference in GameLogic (bad practice anyway).
I'm getting this error now:
GPG_Application.cpp: In member function 'void GPG_Application::stopEngine()':
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/include/python2.3/marshal.h:12: error: too many arguments to function 'PyObject* PyMarshal_WriteObjectToString(PyObject*)'
GPG_Application.cpp:720: error: at this point in file
Are we offically not supporint older versions of python now? :)

* removed macros that were not used much, some misleading.
* removed error string setting calls that overwrote the error set by PyArg_ParseTuple with a less useful one.
* use python macros Py_RETURN_NONE, Py_RETURN_TRUE, Py_RETURN_FALSE
fixed a python related bug with physics contraints
fixed some line-ending problem with blenderbuttons.c
makefile/scons/projectfiles need to add source/gameengine/Ketsji/KX_VehicleWrapper.cpp
