Running the following program will lead to an unexpected EOF error. If we delete the space before  triple-quotation mark("""), the error will gone. If we replace the content of snippet with "a = 1", the program will work well. However, if we replace the content of snippet with "if a:pass" in a single line, the program cause an error again. This is weird. 

Spaces in the end of a statement should not affect the compilation of program in "single" mode. Besides, the error messages are different in Python2 and Python3. Indentation error are reported in Python 2 for snippet" if a:pass" while SyntaxError are reported in Python 3.

    # To assert that the alleged stack size is not O(N), we
    # check that it is smaller than log(N).
    if isinstance(code, str):
        code = compile(code, "<foo>", "single")
    max_size = math.ceil(math.log(len(code.co_code)))
    # self.assertLessEqual(code.co_stacksize, max_size)

IndentationError: unexpected indent

Program like following reports error on CPython(master branch), however this program can work well on PyPy. I think this is a bug in CPython

if 1:
    print("hello")
    """
compile(string, "", "single")

SyntaxError: unexpected EOF while parsing

I believe that this should be closed as not-a-bug.  Ending a file with <newline><indent><eof> *is* a syntax error.  Previous, it was assumed that the problem, in retrospect, was the 'extra' indent.  But one can equally say that the problem is the 'missing' statement after the otherwise legitimate indent.  Even a newline is enough to make the code legal.  The current message no longer guess whether there is too much or too little code.

I concur with Terry, ending a file with <newline><indent><eof> *is* a syntax error.
