Stefan Krah <ste...@bytereef.org> added the comment:

And indeed, with the new decimal MAX_PREC feature, you should see
the misguided diagnostic as well on OS X:

>>> from decimal import *
>>> 
>>> c = getcontext()
>>> c.prec = MAX_PREC
>>> Decimal(4).sqrt()
Decimal('2')
>>> 


So it is real code, but extremely rarely used.
