[issue5389] Uninitialized variable may be used in PyUnicode_DecodeUTF7Stateful()

Marc-Andre Lemburg added the comment: The UTF-7 codec implementation has a few problems (one of them is that it is hardly being used, so bugs only get detected very slowly). issue4426 has a patch with cleaned up and more standards compliant implementation. Perhaps that also fixes the problem wi

[issue5404] Cross-compiling Python

New submission from Joshua Kinard : I'm attempting to get Python to cross-compile, and I'm not sure if this is an actual flaw in the build system or not, but thought I'd detail what I can here and seek comment from those in the know. What happens is under a cross-environment setup on a Gentoo in

[issue5135] Expose simplegeneric function in functools module

Kevin Teague added the comment: The problem with generic functions supporting ABCs is it's a bug with the way ABCs work and not a problem with the generic function implementation. The register() method of an ABC only fakes out isinstance checks, it doesn't actually make the abstract base class a

Raymond Hettinger added the comment: FWIW, I'm happy with Guido's design of MutableMapping. It parallels all the other ABCs in its design and it succeeds completely at its primary role as a defining an interface. Its secondary role is to provide some mixin capability. It does well in this rol

New submission from Paul Moore : There is no way to determine the list of classes for which issubclass(C, x) is true. The MRO of the class is fine for normal inheritance, but for ABCs it is possible to register classes which don't inherit from the ABC, so that you have a situation where issubclas
