A word of advice: the Python maintainers don't regard anything that behaves as it is documented to as a "bug", no matter how wrong it seems. This is taken a lot more seriously than you would think. In future complaints about the language, you'll cut down on techicalities if you respect the usage of the word "bug" and use a term such as "intentional misfeature" instead.
