[New-bugs-announce] [issue23866] array module broken

[Antoine Pitrou]

New submission from Antoine Pitrou:

The array.array constructor has stopped working. I feel like this may be due to the latest Argument Clinic changes.

======================================================================
ERROR: test_create_from_bytes (test.test_array.ByteTest)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/antoine/cpython/default/Lib/test/test_array.py", line 1016, in test_create_from_bytes
    a = array.array('H', b"1234")
TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'tuple'
