New submission from Brett Cannon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Passing in bytes to compile() works well for letting the parser handle
the decoding of a file when an encoding is specified, but it doesn't
take care of universal newlines::
>>> source = b'a = 1\r\nb = 2\r\n'
>>> compile(source, '<test>', 'exec')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "<test>", line 1
a = 1
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
