New submission from CZ : when pydoc is run with "python -m" (e.g., "python -m pydoc map"), you will receive an error message: No module named tempfile. The reason is pydoc removes 'C:\Python26\lib' (in my case) from sys.path. But you can run it as "python " because the lib directory appears tw

[issue10682] With '*args' or even bare '*' in def/call argument list, trailing comma causes SyntaxError

Brett Cannon added the comment: I'm with Raymond; this is unneeded consistency. I honestly would rather see what little support there is for a trailing comma to go away, but w/o looking at the grammar I am willing to bet that would be a pain to get right and not be worth the effort.
