Indeed. I should've threatened to kill the AST branch long ago! :)

No. It generates the same broken code as the current compiler.

Even for immutables, it could be useful to be able to
add behaviour that doesn't mutate anything.

That's a bug in frame_setlineno(), IMO. It's failing to detect an

I don't know how many machines you've been able to test the AST branch on. I

Neil and I have been working on the AST branch for the last week.
We're nearly ready to merge the changes to the head. I imagine we'll

There are a few open issues that remain. I'd like to merge the branch
before resolving them. Please let me kn

Because then it wouldn't be automatic.
The earlier portion of this discussion came from...
import module
#module.
Why not lazily import modules by importing them when they are needed
(i.e inside functions), and not in the top-level module scope?

I don't know of anything that exists. There is an upcoming book that
may help:
Java Concurrency in Practice, by Brian Goetz, Tim Peierls, Joshua

If threads aren't involved, you should use "collections.deque" directly,
