New submission from Guy Galun <galun....@gmail.com>:

When encountering an import that should be removed in Python 3 (e.g. "from 
itertools import izip"), 2to3 changes it a blank line, which may cause a 
runtime error if that import was indented:

error: module importing failed: expected an indented block (ptypes.py, line 10)
  File "temp.py", line 1, in <module>
  File "./lldbmacros/xnu.py", line 771, in <module>
    from memory import *
  File "./lldbmacros/memory.py", line 11, in <module>
    import macho
  File "./lldbmacros/macho.py", line 3, in <module>
    from macholib import MachO as macho
  File "./lldbmacros/macholib/MachO.py", line 10, in <module>
    from .mach_o import MH_FILETYPE_SHORTNAMES, LC_DYSYMTAB, LC_SYMTAB
  File "./lldbmacros/macholib/mach_o.py", line 16, in <module>
    from macholib.ptypes import p_uint32, p_uint64, Structure, p_long, 
pypackable

Relevant section before 2to3:

try:
    from itertools import izip, imap
except ImportError:
    izip, imap = zip, map
from itertools import chain, starmap

And after 2to3:

try:
    
except ImportError:
    izip, imap = zip, map
from itertools import chain, starmap


* Side note:
This specific case may only be problematic with scripts that are partially 
aware of Python 3, otherwise they wouldn't try-catch that import.

* Proposed solution:
In case of that kind of import being the single line of an indented block, 
change it to "pass" instead of a blank line.
