- Issue #5013: Fixed a bug in FileHandler which occurred when the delay
parameter was set.
+- Issue 1242657: the __len__() and __length_hint__() calls in several tools
+ were suppressing all exceptions. These include list(), filter(), map(),
+ zip(), and bytearray().
+
- Issue #4935: The overflow checking code in the expandtabs() method common
to str, bytes and bytearray could be optimized away by the compiler, letting
the interpreter segfault instead of raising an error.
