[New-bugs-announce] [issue6355] bogus NULL check in PyCapsule

[Benjamin Kramer]

New submission from Benjamin Kramer <benny.kra at gmail.com>:

Objects/capsule.c contains the following code:

if (!name1 || !name2) {
    /* they're only the same if they're both NULL. */
    return name2 == name2;
}

The result of this comparison will always be true. The comment says it 
should be 'name1 == name2'.
