New submission from Ernesto Alfonso:

itertools.imap and map in Python 2.7 produces inconsistent behaviour when 
mapping the null (None) function over multiple sequences.
 


>>> [a for a in map(None, list("abcd"), range(3))]
[('a', 0), ('b', 1), ('c', 2), ('d', None)]
>>> from itertools import imap
>>> [a for a in imap(None, list("abcd"), range(3))]
[('a', 0), ('b', 1), ('c', 2)]
>>> [a for a in map(None, list("abcd"), range(3))] == [a for a in imap(None, 
>>> list("abcd"), range(3))]
False
>>> 



This inconsistent and unintuitive behvaiour caused a bug in my program
