New submission from Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com>:
I'm seeing a very peculiar test_pep263 failure when doing 'make test' on OS X
10.6.3. It's enough to run test___all__ and test_pep263, in that order:
Mark-Dickinsons-MacBook-Pro:trunk dickinsm$ ./python.exe -Wd -3 -E -tt
./Lib/test/regrtest.py test___all__ test_pep263
test___all__
/Users/dickinsm/python/svn/trunk/Lib/test/test___all__.py:3:

import _bsddb
test_pep263
test test_pep263 failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/dickinsm/python/svn/trunk/Lib/test/test_pep263.py", line 39, in

1 test OK.

test_pep263

The failing test is expecting a SyntaxError, but gets a NameError instead.
I've narrowed down the cause of the failure to a Tkinter import:
Python 2.7a4+ (trunk:79716, Apr 3 2010, 20:30:09)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646) (dot 1)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> eval('\xff\x20')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "<string>", line 1
?
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

>>> import Tkinter

>>> eval('\xff\x20')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name '?' is not defined

But I'm now mystified: why does the eval raise a SyntaxError before the import
and a TypeError afterwards?
