Comment(by jsrn):
Another bug: Since Python 2.6, inspect.getargspec should return a _named_
tuple ArgSpec(args, varargs, keywords, defaults) (see e.g.
http://docs.python.org/library/inspect.html#inspect.getargspec). My patch
expects such a tuple and returns such a tuple. However, sage_getargspec
does not return a named argspec, and, apparently, inspect.formatargspec
still accepts the unnamed one (so we don't see the error from here).
We have two possibilities:
1) Change my patch so it doesn't rely on the tuple being named
2) Change sageinspect to return named tuples for all returned argspecs.
I vote for 2) as that seems to be the direction Python is going; I would
expect inspect.formatargspec to change in later versions and no longer
accept unnamed tuples.
