Summary: Fix error/crash in AST: syntaxerror in complex ifs
Initial Comment:
Fix a bug in Python/ast.c, where a particular syntaxerror in an 'if' with one
or more 'elif's would be ignored or mishandled:
timberwolf:~/python/python/trunk > cat test2.py
def bug():
if w:
dir()=1
elif v:
pass
timberwolf:~/python/python/trunk > python2.4 test2.py
File "test2.py", line 3
dir()=1
SyntaxError: can't assign to function call
timberwolf:~/python/python/trunk > python2.5 test2.py
Exception exceptions.SyntaxError: ("can't assign to function call", 3) in
'garbage collection' ignored
Fatal Python error: unexpected exception during garbage collection
Aborted
The actual problem is the lack of error checks on the return values of
ast_for_expr() and ast_for_suite, in ast_for_if_stmt. Attached patch fixes.
