Summary: Multiple dots in relative import statement raise SyntaxError
Initial Comment:
When a relative import statement contains more than
one period and no module name, SyntaxError is raised.
Example:
from . import spam # this works
from ..spam import eggs # this works
from .. import eggs # this raises SyntaxError
The problem is in the following line in Grammar/Grammar:
import_from: ('from' ('.'* dotted_name | '.')
According to Guido's mail:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2003-December/041065.html
that line should be:
import_from: ('from' ('.'* dotted_name | '.'+)

Actually, it was as simple as adding the '+' to the grammar,
because all the code already expected multiple dots. (My
first few patches actually did this right, but Guido
suggested an alternative (simpler) spelling of the Grammar
rule, and we both forgot the '+' :)
Fixed and testcase added in 46209 and 46210. Thanks!

Assigned to Thomas. It doesn't seem as simple as adding the
"+" in Grammar.
