[issue14367] try/except block in ismethoddescriptor() in inspect.py, so that pydoc works with pygame in Python 3.2

[Michael Foord]

Michael Foord <michael at voidspace.org.uk> added the comment:

So PyGame __init__.py has various not-a-module objects with __getattr__ that raises a NotImplementedError on every attribute access. Changing inspect to use getattr_static, so it doesn't trigger code execution on attribute access, would fix the problem.

Making pydoc resilient against exceptions is probably a *better* solution for the specific problem - although changing ismethoddescriptor to not trigger code execution would be good *as well*.
