[New-bugs-announce] [issue3974] collections.namedtuple uses exec to create new classes

[Jens Kadenbach]

New submission from Jens Kadenbach <j.kadenbach at gmx.de>:

Rewrite of the namedtuple implementation to avoid the use of exec for
class generation.  The new code uses a custom class dictionary and the
builtin type to create new classes dynamically.
