New submission from astronouth7303:
Something about distutils/cmd.py breaks inspect.findsource(). I am
unsure if this is a bug with DistUtils or the inspect module.
import inspect, distutils.cmd
inspect.findsource(distutils.cmd.install_misc.get_outputs)
Causes findsource() to receive
astronouth7303 added the comment:
sqlite3/test/types.py also seems to cause the same error, although the
difference is much wider (101 lines vs. 351).

The exact traceback is as follows:
findsource(distutils.cmd.install_misc.get_outputs)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File stdin, line 1, in module
File /usr/lib/python2.5/inspect.py, line 510, in findsource
if pat.match(lines[lnum]): break
astronouth7303 added the comment:
Indeed. For the distutils.cmd case, linecache.updatecache() takes
cmd.py and tracks that down to /usr/lib/python2.5/cmd.py. This would
also explain the sqlite3.tests.types problem.
The bug seems to be that the inspect module doesn't pass enough context
