Discounting the false positives, the only issue it finds in python
itself (trunk) is the deliberate mistake in Modules/xxmodule.c
I also ran it on a random sample of extension modules and found some
real bugs (only reported downstream so far, within Fedora's bug
tracker):
- DBus python bindings assume in one place that "unsigned long" is
32 bits wide: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=538225
- MySQL-python assumes in one place that sizeof(int) ==
sizeof(long):
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=538234
- rpm.ps.append() uses unrecognized 'N' format specifier:
