[New-bugs-announce] [issue30592] Bad error message 'bool()() takes no keyword arguments'

[SylvainDe]

New submission from SylvainDe:

Very recent "regression". Issue found because of a pet project trying to parse error messages using regexps : more on https://github.com/SylvainDe/DidYouMean-Python/issues/31 .

On recent Cron builds on Jenkins, running the following code

    bool(this_doesnt_exist=2)

fails with the following error message

    'bool()() takes no keyword arguments'

instead of the expected error message

    'bool() takes no keyword arguments'.


Having a quick look at the recent commits, I suspect with no guarantee whatsoever the issue got introduced with https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/5eb788bf7f54a8e04429e18fc332db858edd64b6 / http://bugs.python.org/issue30534 .

I haven't tried to reproduce the issue locally yet and add the findinds if any later on.
