[Python-Dev] Weird message to stderr

[M.-A. Lemburg]

Running Python 2.1 using a .pyc file I get these weird messages
printed to stderr:

run_pyc_file: nested_scopes: 0

These originate in pythonrun.c:

static PyObject *
run_pyc_file(FILE *fp, char *filename, PyObject *globals, PyObject *locals,
	     PyCompilerFlags *flags)
{
	PyCodeObject *co;
	PyObject *v;
	long magic;
	long PyImport_GetMagicNumber(void);

	magic = PyMarshal_ReadLongFromFile(fp);
	if (magic != PyImport_GetMagicNumber()) {
		PyErr_SetString(PyExc_RuntimeError,
			   "Bad magic number in .pyc file");
		return NULL;
	}
	(void) PyMarshal_ReadLongFromFile(fp);
	v = PyMarshal_ReadLastObjectFromFile(fp);
	fclose(fp);
	if (v == NULL || !PyCode_Check(v)) {
		Py_XDECREF(v);
		PyErr_SetString(PyExc_RuntimeError,
			   "Bad code object in .pyc file");
		return NULL;
	}
	co = (PyCodeObject *)v;
	v = PyEval_EvalCode(co, globals, locals);
	if (v && flags) {
		if (co->co_flags & CO_NESTED)
			flags->cf_nested_scopes = 1;
		fprintf(stderr, "run_pyc_file: nested_scopes: %d\n",
			flags->cf_nested_scopes);			
	}
	Py_DECREF(co);
	return v;
}

Is this is left over debug printf or should I be warned
in some way ?
