New submission from Wolfgang Scherer:
configparser.ConfigParser.clean() always fails:
>>> cfg = configparser.ConfigParser()
>>> if not hasattr(configparser.ConfigParser, 'clear'):
... configparser.ConfigParser.clear = configparser_clear_compat
>>> cfg.clear() #doctest: +ELLIPSIS
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
ValueError: Cannot remove the default section.
configparser.ConfigParser.update() overwrites all sections except DEFAULT
instead of updating them.
