New submission from Peter:
The 2to3 script should remove lines like this:
from future_builtins import zip
after running the zip fixer which respects the meaning of this command (issue
217). It does not, which results in an ImportError when trying to use the
converted code under Python 3.
Similarly for lines like this after running the map fixer etc:
from future_builtins import map
Background:
Python 2.6 and 2.7 have an iterator-style zip function in future_builtins (and
other things):
$ python2.6
Python 2.6.8 (unknown, Sep 28 2013, 12:09:28)
[GCC 4.6.3] on linux3
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import future_builtins
>>> dir(future_builtins)
['__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '__package__', 'ascii', 'filter', 'hex',
'map', 'oct', 'zip']
>>> quit()
$ python2.7
Python 2.7.1 (r271:86832, Dec 26 2010, 19:03:20)
[GCC 4.4.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import future_builtins
>>> dir(future_builtins)
['__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '__package__', 'ascii', 'filter', 'hex',
'map', 'oct', 'zip']
>>> quit()
The future_builtins module does not exist under Python 3, in particular its zip
and map functions do not exist.

Sample script using zip which works under Python 2.6 and 2.7,
$ more zip_2to3_bug.py
from future_builtins import zip
assert next(zip("abc", [1, 2, 3])) == ("a", 1)
print "Done"
$ python2.6 zip_2to3_bug.py
Done
$ python2.7 zip_2to3_bug.py
Done
Now let's use the 2to3 script (in place):
$ 2to3 -w zip_2to3_bug.py

the line "from future_builtins import zip":
