Hopefully fix the profiler right. Add a test suite that checks that
it deals correctly with some anomalous cases; according to this test
suite I've fixed it right.
The anomalous cases had to do with 'exception' events: these aren't
generated when they would be most helpful, and the profiler has to
work hard to recover the right information. The problems occur when C
code (such as hasattr(), which is used as the example here) calls back
into Python code and clears an exception raised by that Python code.
Consider this example:
def foo():
hasattr(obj, "bar")
Where obj is an instance from a class like this:
class C:
def __getattr__(self, name):
raise AttributeError
The profiler sees the following sequence of events:
call (foo)
call (__getattr__)
exception (in __getattr__)
return (from foo)
Previously, the profiler would assume the return event returned from
__getattr__. An if statement checking for this condition and raising
an exception was commented out... This version does the right thing.
