[New-bugs-announce] [issue2505] Restrict attributes of _ast nodes

[Georg Brandl]

New submission from Georg Brandl <georg at python.org>:

This patch adds two things to the _ast module:
* Nodes can be initialized with keyword arguments:
  m = _ast.Module(body=[...])

* Only attributes that are in _fields or _attributes can be set on nodes.

Martin, what do you think?
