I think I misunderstood this at first.

It looks like, while developing a python 3.2+ program, if you don't
create an empty __pycache__ directory, everything will still work, you
just won't get the .pyc files.  That can be a good thing during
development because you also will not have any problems with old .pyc
files hanging around if you move or rename files.

The behaviour you described (not creating __pycache__ automatically) was
just a suggestion in this thread.

The behaviour in the actual PEP (and what will be implemented for 3.2+)
is to create __pycache__ if it is missing.

Cheers,

OK  :-)

hmmmm... unless there is a __pycache__ *file* located there first. ;-)

Not that I can think of any good reason to do that at this moment.
