[New-bugs-announce] [issue8782] inspect.getsource returns invalid source for non-newline-ending module

[holger krekel]

New submission from holger krekel <holger.krekel at gmail.com>:

Executing the attached "inspect_failure.py" under python2.6 or python3.1 results in an assertion error: Python fails to obtain the source code of a function that is defined at the end of a module whose last line does not contain a line ending character. 

After brief analysis i think there are two approaches to fixing it: normalizing newlines in inspect.findsource (see attached inspect.patch file against r312) or performing normalization in linecache.updatecache which does it already for source code obtained from PEP302 loaders. Or any other ideas?
