Summary: 'compile' built-in function failures when missing EOL
Initial Comment:
The 'compile' built-in function sometimes fails when
given a source string that doesn't end in an EOL.
The following example crashes Python 2.3, 2.4, and 2.5a1:
prompt> ./python2.5 -c "compile('def foo(x):\n
pass\n#abc', 'blah.py', 'exec')"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "blah.py", line 3
#abc
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Attached is a patch to Lib/test/test_compile.py with a
test for this.

This is a documented limitation of compile. The docs
say "the input must be terminated by at least one
newline character". See:
http://docs.python.org/lib/built-in-funcs.html#l2h-16
I would say that this is a bug in the trace module
(compare trace.find_executable_module and
py_compile.compile).

The case that led me to this was calling
'trace.find_executable_linenos' on source files with this
condition.
