Summary: non-uniform behavior in 'startswith' / 'endswith'
Initial Comment:
compare the two versions of 'endswith'.
Either both of them should throw TypeErorr or both
should return boolean value.
>>> 'abc'.endswith( ('abc',None))
True
>>> 'abc'.endswith( ('abc',None),4,3)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: expected a character buffer object

The current code shortcuts if it finds a match, so I think
this is not a bug. Raymond?
