Comment(by SimonKing):

 I just noticed that there is a typo in `_list_from_iterator_cached`: It
 says
 {{{
         try:
             if not self.is_finite():
                 raise ValueError('since it is infinite, cannot list %s' %
 self )
         except AttributeError, NotImplementedError:
             pass
 }}}
 but should of course say
 {{{
         try:
             if not self.is_finite():
                 raise ValueError('since it is infinite, cannot list %s' %
 self )
         except (AttributeError, NotImplementedError):
             pass
 }}}

 But even if I change this, I have a hard time coming up with an example
 that illustrates `X.list()` running forever.
