New submission from James Lingard <j...@aristanetworks.com>: def f((x)=0): pass
gives the following incorrect error message: SyntaxError: non-default argument follows default argument "def f((x)): pass" is treated exactly the same as "def f(x): pass", so it would seem sensible for the same to be true if a default value is used. But if this syntax is disallowed for some reason, the error message should be fixed. This appears to be related to bug #1557232.
