New submission from Marco Buttu: I was looking at inspect.getsource(). In Python 3.3 and 3.4 either the docstring and the online doc say it raises a OSError, and in fact:

...

...

import inspect def foo(): ... pass ... inspect.getsource(foo) Traceback (most recent call last): ... OSError: could not get source code

However, getsource() calls getfile(), and this one raises a TypeError:

...

...

inspect.getsource(0) Traceback (most recent call last): ... TypeError: 0 is not a module, class, method, function, traceback, frame, or code object
