[issue13008] syntax error when pasting valid snippet into console without empty string after the function def

[anatoly techtonik]

New submission from anatoly techtonik <techtonik at gmail.com>:

This is self-explanative. Function definitions are identical. Syntax error caused by the absence of empty line after the function definition.

Python 2.7.1 (r271:86832, Apr 12 2011, 16:16:18)
