[New-bugs-announce] [issue2467] gc.DEBUG_STATS reports invalid "elapsed" times

[Jean-Paul Calderone]

New submission from Jean-Paul Calderone <exarkun at divmod.com>:

If gc.set_debug(gc.DEBUG_STATS) is enabled, collection will report
elapsed time as it progresses through collection.  However, the
reporting code clobbers the value it uses to compute the elapsed time,
so the value alternates between an almost correct valid and a completely
incorrect value.
