[New-bugs-announce] [issue26068] re.compile() repr end quote truncated

[ThiefMaster]

New submission from ThiefMaster:

```
Python 3.4.3 (default, Jan  5 2016, 23:13:10)
[GCC 4.7.3] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import re
>>> for n in range(198, 201):
...     print(re.compile('x' * n))
...
re.compile('xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx')
re.compile('xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
re.compile('xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)
```

The closing quote in the repr goes away once the regex exceeds a certain length. This smells like an off-by-one somewhere that results in the last character to be lost. In any case, it's pretty ugly since the repr clearly pretends to be executable Python code, which is not the case anymore with this quote missing.
