I noticed that the change is still present in 2.7a. For what it's worth, I agree with David: """ Since it does trigger a crash on the windows equivalent API, the check should be conditional on platform. And it should generate a py3k warning on other platforms. """ I am changing classification to "feature request" and adding "Windows" to the list of components because if I understand David correctly, the title of the issue is valid only on Windows platform. (On other platforms os.execlp(path) may cause a crash of the program found at path, but not a crash of python interpreter itself.) I also remove 2.6 from the list of versions since after r79190 no further action is contemplated for 2.6 branch. ---------- components: +Windows type: crash -> feature request versions: -Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8154> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
