[issue5739] Language reference is ambiguous regarding next() method lookup

[Nick Coghlan]

Guido didn't actually say whether or not this was originally just an
implementation accident or a deliberate design choice - he just
indicated that this was a case where caching the bound method should be
disallowed because it could change the semantics of existing programs.
