[issue6700] inspect.getsource() returns incorrect source lines

[Gabriel Genellina]

New submission from Gabriel Genellina <gagsl-py2 at yahoo.com.ar>:

inspect.getsource(obj) returns incorrect results when obj is a 
traceback or frame object outside any function (that is, at the module 
level).

This demo script shows the problem. The correct output should contain 
all source lines in the module, but it only returns the first two:


D:\temp>type show_inspect_bug.py
def foo(x):
  return y + z

import inspect
frame = inspect.currentframe()
print inspect.getsource(frame)


D:\temp>python show_inspect_bug.py
def foo(x):
  return y + z


The attached patch fixes the problem and adds some missing test cases.
