It's a variable argument list (...). The compiler is not supposed to give any warnings for that (although I do have a gcc patch that enables warnings for PyArg_ParseTuple). > Still, the error message is somewhat confusing. Passing incorrect parameters to variable argument lists causes undefined behavior. Anything can happen under undefined behavior, including mysterious error messages, erasure of your hard disk, and reversal of the global warming. To understand why the specific error message is printed, you would have to debug what values are passed on the stack at what point.
