Summary: Bogus SyntaxError in listcomp
Initial Comment:
The attached syn.py gives a SyntaxError in 2.5a1 and
trunk. Works fine in earlier Pythons. Whittled down
from real-life Zope3 source.
def d(dir):
return [fn
for fn in os.listdir(dir)
if fn
if fn]

The whittled-down version looks ridiculous, but the original
wasn't quite such an affront to beauty :-) It's really no
stranger than allowing pure "if" statements to nest, and it
would be more painful to contort the grammar to disallow it
(I haven't looked at the 2.5 parser, but it was very
surprising to me that it didn't allow it!).

Is including two if clauses with a single for clause really
meant to be legal?
*goes and looks at language reference*
Wow. What a strange way to write "and". . .
