[IronPython] Confusing Error Message

[Michael Foord]

This had me foxed for a while:

CPython
 >>> 'a' in object()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: iterable argument required
 >>>

IronPython (changeset 42603)
 >>> 'a' in object()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: argument of type 'str' is not iterable
 >>>
