New submission from Martin Morrison:
Minimal testcase of the problem situation is tokenising (with posix mode on):
''),
Specifically, an empty string, followed by a non-word character, followed by a
non-space character. In this case, the token buffer is empty and due to a
missing check for (self.posix and quoted), an extra token is consumed and
returned in the wrong order:
>>> s = shlex.shlex("'')abc", posix=True)
>>> s.get_token()
'abc'
>>> s.get_token()
')'
>>> s.get_token()
>>>
I have patches to fix this issue in both default and 2.7. I've also checked
there are no other occurrences of the same typo.
