Florent Xicluna <florent.xicl...@gmail.com> added the comment: The verification of the matching between start and end tag is performed in a debug "assert" statement in the Python version. This check is ignored if the module is compiled with -O. It is ignored in the C version, too.
I would suggest to keep the current behavior for both versions.
