[New-bugs-announce] [issue4282] (Python3) The profile module deesn't understand the character set definition

[Takafumi SHIDO]

New submission from Takafumi SHIDO <takafumi at shido.info>:

The profile module of Python3 deesn't understand the character set of
the script.

When a profile is executed (like $python -m profile -o prof.dat foo.py)
on a code (say foo.py) which defines its character set in the second
line (like #coding:utf-8),
the profile crashes with an error message like:
"SyntaxError: unknown encoding: utf-8"
