New submission from Raymond Hettinger:
The help() function mysteriously captures a comment on the line preceding an inner function definition in a nested scope.
Given this code:
----------------
def outer(func):
#comment
def inner():
return
return inner
@outer
def f():
return
Calling help(f) produces:
-------------------------
Help on function inner in module __main__:
inner()
#comment
