Steven, it works fine to some cases.
I have problem only when last line is a comment and before it I have an
indentation. It is a specific case, and it is not a common case.
>>> compile("for i in [1,2,3]:\n pass\n#end", "test_file.py", "exec")
What I understanded about Benjamin's answer is compile() without a new line
at the end has an indetermined behaviour, so in some cases it works.
