[issue17640] from distutils.util import byte_compile hangs

[Dmitry Sivachenko]

New submission from Dmitry Sivachenko:

The following problem exists in python3.3.0 and python3.3.1rc1.

>From the command line it works:

root at dhcp175-40-red:~ # python3
Python 3.3.1rc1 (default, Apr  5 2013, 18:03:56) 
[GCC 4.2.1 20070831 patched [FreeBSD]] on freebsd10
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from distutils.util import byte_compile
>>> 


>From script it hangs:
root at dhcp175-40-red:~ # cat /tmp/comp.py 
from distutils.util import byte_compile
files = [
'/usr/local/lib/python3.3/site-packages/yaml/__init__.py',]

byte_compile(files, optimize=1, force=None,
             prefix=None, base_dir=None,
             verbose=1, dry_run=0,
             direct=1)

# python3 /tmp/comp.py
--> Now it hangs forever, if I press Ctrl+D, I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/tmp/comp.py", line 1, in <module>
    from distutils.util import byte_compile
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/distutils/util.py", line 9, in <module>
    import imp
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/imp.py", line 28, in <module>
    import tokenize
  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.3/tokenize.py", line 37, in <module>
    __all__ = token.__all__ + ["COMMENT", "tokenize", "detect_encoding",
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '__all__'
