New submission from Guido Imperiale <crusade...@gmail.com>:
(1)
In the documentation for loads(), the name for the first argument of loads is
'bytes_object'. The actual signature, both in pickle.py and _pickle.c, it is
instead 'data'.
(2)
In the documentation and in pickle.py, the default value for the 'buffers'
parameter is None. However, in _pickle.c, it is an empty tuple (); this is also
reflected by running the interpreter:
In [1]: inspect.signature(pickle.loads).parameters['buffers']
Out[1]: <Parameter "buffers=()">
Thanks to @hauntsaninja for spotting these in
