New submission from Jan Gosmann:
Running modulefinder.ModuleFinder.run_script on a script which has an import
statement with a module containing a syntax error will raise a SyntaxError
exception. I think, modulefinder should instead continue its analysis and add
the module to badmodules. Especially, as there are valid reasons for importing
modules with syntax errors like in the following code snippet
if not python3:
from .exec_py2 import exec_
else:
from .exec_py3 import exec_
I attached a patch which changes the code to catch potential SyntaxError
exceptions and change them to an ImportError.
