Crash Building error when trying to create ast representation of module 'test'

[torarvid]

Bug description

When parsing the following file:

try:
    raise ExceptionGroup("test", [ValueError("value error")])
except* ValueError:
    print("hello")

pylint crashed with a AstroidBuildingError and with the following stacktrace:

Traceback (most recent call last):

pylint does not have any successful output, just a crash report (which I copy-pasted into the bug description above). For completeness, I'll paste the raw output here as well:

Thank you for opening the issue, this will be fixed by pylint-dev/astroid#2028

[jacobtylerwalls]

I think we should land this in 2.17 as it needs a new minor version of astroid. No need to do more 2.16.x patch releases.

[Pierre-Sassoulas]

Sounds good I wanted to do a small release with 2.17.0 anyway.

[Pierre-Sassoulas]

Fixed with #8387
