I'm not sure how often it happens, but today it would not be visible to the user; after the patch, users will see a sporadic failure that they can't easily defend against. Would it be worth adding a counter to lookdict, so that one modification is OK, but 5 aren't? ---------- nosy: +Jim.Jewett _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14205> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
