[New-bugs-announce] [issue1592] operations on closed shelves fail cryptically

[Erno Kuusela]

New submission from Erno Kuusela:

shelve objects set self.dict = 0 in their close() method. this
results in errors such as TypeError: unsubscriptable object and
AttributeError: 'int' object has no attribute 'has_key'.
This is fairly baffling for the user.

"self.dict = 0" in close() is present in current svn trunk too.
