Try running it as a script:

File "Lib/lib2to3/tests/data/py3_test_grammar.py", line 130
x = ...
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Furthermore, testEllipsis seems invalid. What is intended?

>>> class C:
	def __getitem__(self, x): return x

>>> c[...]
Ellipsis
>>> c[.                   .                     .]
Ellipsis
>>> eval(...)
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

[birkenfeld]

I think this file is only meant as a test that 2to3 can parse both 2.x
and 3.x syntax, not Python itself.

[benjaminp]

Quite correct.

[kbkaiser]

So the error during libinstall should be ignored....

[benjaminp]

Oh, indeed. I wonder what the best way to do that is?

[benjaminp]

Should be fixed in r71494.
