Core and builtins ----------------- +- Finally fixed the bug in compile() and exec where a string ending + with an indented code block but no newline would raise SyntaxError. + This would have been a four-line change in parsetok.c... Except + codeop.py depends on this behavior, so a compilation flag had to be + invented that causes the tokenizer to revert to the old behavior; + this required extra changes to 2 .h files, 2 .c files, and 2 .py + files. + - If a new-style class defines neither __new__ nor __init__, its constructor would ignore all arguments.
