For Germans, anyway.
Related story: I once had a variable named arglist in some C code
dealing with an embedded Python interpreter. It took me quite
some time to find out reason for the compiler errors I got:
There's a
#define arglist 311
in Python's graminit.h.
(Somehow this got #included because some code needed the
definition of eval_input, IIRC).
So I got what I asked for...
