Well, I won't fight over it, but it's really meant to check an aspect of
memoryview behaviour - otherwise why would it be part of your patch ? -,
and as such it should be in test_memoryview (and if it's meant to check
compile() then it should be in some hypothetical test_compile :-)).

In general I find it annoying that many tests are dumped into "generic"
test files like test_builtin, rather than in the test file appropriate
for the functionality being tested.

That said, I haven't looked at the rest of the patch yet, sorry! (back
from holidays)
