[New-bugs-announce] [issue16571] Iterating over inconsistently-indented code block causes execution of code only on last iteration of loop

New submission from Brian Berard:

When a loop (for loop in this case) contains multiple lines of code, if the lines are inconsistently indented, the for loop will only execute those lines on the final pass through the loop with no type of warning regarding indentation error. 

Ex. 

for i in range(0,10):
    print "I will print on every iteration: %d" % i  # TAB indented
    print "I will only print on the final iteration: %d" % i # 4 spaces
