I saw this too, and as far as I can tell it's a bug in
Python
2.2. Basically syntax errors no longer tell you what
the file is where the
syntax error is, and where the filename used to be it
just says
<string>. Someone should file a bug report to Python
about this...

File "<string>", line 1
def foo bar:

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
