New submission from STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com>:

If the site module fails, the error is not logged because of a bug in 
initsite(). The problem is that PyFile_WriteString() does nothing if an error 
occurred.

 - Edit Lib/site.py to add "raise Exception('xxx')" at the beginning of main()
 - Run ./python
 - (no error is logged)

In verbose mode, only the exception is logged, without the first line:

  'import site' failed; traceback:

Attached patch fixes both issues.

This issue is specific to Python 3.1:
 - Python 2.7 and 3.2 consider site error as a fatal error 
 - Python 2.6 doesn't have the bug because PyFile_WriteString() write the 
message even if an error occurred
