[New-bugs-announce] [issue17989] ElementTree.Element broken attribute setting

[Jakub Wilk]

New submission from Jakub Wilk:

Setting attributes on ElementTree.Element objects is broken: it succeeds without exception, but then the following statement fails with AttributeError (unless that statement sets an Element's attribute too):

$ python3.3 test-element-setattr.py 
Hello world!Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test-element-setattr.py", line 6, in <module>
    print('Hello world!')
AttributeError: ham2
