[issue5786] len(reversed([1,2,3])) does not work anymore in 2.6.2

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <rhettinger at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

Essentially, the only argument for reverting this is breaking
compatibility with 2.6.0 and 2.6.1.  But, in the process, reverting it
means breaking compatibility with 2.6.2.  Since the cat is already out
of the bag for 2.6.2, I think the bugfix ought to be left in-place. 
It's too disruptive to switch back and forth during micro releases.
