Call it what you want :-) The bottom line is that we'll release a 2.7.5 soon because of breakage introduced in 2.7.4. Whether or not it's a "regression" according to some platonic definition isn't very important here. > The problem can be avoided, by clearing the exception right at the > start of the PyInterpreterState_Clear(), thus flushing out most side > effects right at the start. > > I'll prepare a patch for you to review. I think this kind of stuff is too tricky to risk breaking 2.7 once again with it. If 3.x has the same issue, then a patch is helpful, otherwise not IMHO. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17969> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
