When running Lib/test/test_descr.py with a Windows debug build, I get an assertion in the MS runtime lib, in the isalpha(*p) call, file typeobject.c, line 1582.  The value of '*p' at the time of the call is 4660.

The assertion reported is:

File: istype.c
Line: 68
Expression; (unsigned)(c + 1) <= 256

I wonder if the test "i > 255" wasn't meant to be "*p > 255"?  Please try that, and submit if it works.  Looks like Walter Doerwald introduced this bug in r55892.

Right, this should have been *p > 255, even better would be *p > 127. Thomas, can you try that on Windows?
msg32492 - (view) Author: Guido van Rossum (gvanrossum) * (Python committer) Date: 2007-08-04 16:44
I've committed the *p > 127 patch.

Committed revision 56737.

However, we'll need to change this again now that we accept Unicode identifiers.  Assigning to MvL.

I confirm that the assertion in the windows debug build is gone now.
