instead of compiling something which can't fail to raise an
exception, would that still be a legal Python implementation?
I'd say "no". Python has defined semantics in this situation: a
TypeError is raised.
The manuals are rather inconsistent about defining the exception
semantics. Some parts define the exception returned. Other, equivalent
parts, do not. I should start a separate thread on this when I find the
examples I once had.
