Armin Rigo <ar...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment: I propose that we first attempt to fix the crasher; depending on the solution we might then either fix the doc or the code for _PyInstance_Lookup().
If no-one is willing to fix this bug I am fine to let it go. But somehow I am sure that there is code *somewhere* that sticks non-string keys in old-style classes or instances, and whose __eq__ has side-effects, like caching. This would create hard-to-reproduce and hard-to-diagnose segfaults. That's mainly the reason why I think that it should be fixed. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9751> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
