Right. This report is about improving error message. It doesn't say what is
expected where. If you have a call like:
os.fchmod(outfile, unixperm)
it is easy to assume that unixperm is not integer, while in fact the problem is
in outfile. This could not be actual for Python 3, but it seems that there is
bug with it as well.
>>> v = open("VERSION")
>>> import os
>>> os.fchmod(v, 0664)
File "<stdin>", line 1
os.fchmod(v, 0664)
^
SyntaxError: invalid token
