New submission from Justin ARthur <justinart...@gmail.com>:
Python 3 code with an identifier that has a non-spacing mark in it does not get
tokenized by lib2to3 and will result in an exception thrown in the parsing
process.
Parsing the attached file (badvar.py), results in `ParseError: bad token:
type=58, value='̇', context=('', (1, 1))`
This happens because the Name pattern regular expression in lib2to3 is `r'\w+'`
and the word character class doesn't contain non-spacing marks (and possible
other [continuation characters allowed in Python 3
identifiers](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/lexical_analysis.html#identifiers)).
