New submission from Hugo Dupras <jab...@gmail.com>:
In python 3.8 the following code raises an exception, which was not the case
with previous python.
```
while False:
...
break
```
It raises the following exception: SyntaxError: 'break' outside loop.
This `while False` loop was used to temporary disable a while loop in our code
base.
Workaround to fix this:
```
enable=False
while enable:
...
break
``` (or use the walrus operator)
