[pypy-issue] [issue848] When calling 'dir', KeyError is incorrectly propagated

[Armin Rigo]

Armin Rigo <armin.rigo at gmail.com> added the comment:

This random eating of exceptions is generally an implementation detail:
http://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/cpython_differences.html#ignored-exceptions .

It may be the case that dir() explicitly eats exceptions for a reason.  If you
can point out some CPython doc that says so, then we'd change our mind and copy
this behavior.
