New issue 746: monkeypatch.setattr('foo.bar', raising=False) raises when
foo.bar doesn't exist
https://bitbucket.org/pytest-dev/pytest/issue/746/monkeypatchsetattr-foobar-raising-false
Florian Bruhin:
I'm trying to patch `sys.frozen` to set it to `True`, but `sys.frozen` doesn't
exist yet.
This works:
```python
monkeypatch.setattr(sys, 'frozen', True, raising=False)
```
This however raises:
```python
monkeypatch.setattr('sys.frozen', True, raising=False)
```
```
> monkeypatch.setattr('sys.frozen', True, raising=False)
E Failed: object <module 'sys' (built-in)> has no attribute 'frozen'
```
