1. Is this absolute name with symlinks resolved?
2. Why there is a special case for __main__?
(i.e. Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.)
Did you read the linked issue?
http://bugs.python.org/issue18416
3. What link should I click in Python reference to read
about standard globals like __file__ and this change?
https://docs.python.org/3.4/library/index.html
I don't know how you got that link. Learn to use the general index
listed on the contents page and top right of every page. For underscore
names, https://docs.python.org/3/genindex-_.html. __file__ will lead you
to the module entry in Chapter 3 Data model, section 2 The standard type
hierarchy. Looking up module/namespace gets you to the same place. It is
possible that the discussion of '__file__' should be slightly revised in
light of the What's new entry.
