[issue8572] httplib getheader() throws error instead of default

[Walter Woods]

Walter Woods <woodswalben at gmail.com> added the comment:

And if you really think that the unfortunate behavior of 

   >>> getheader('a', ['a', 'b'])
   'a, b'

Is desired, issue8572-unfortunate.diff retains that behavior.  I think that is counter-intuitive though, and it is doubtful that many would be relying on this functionality, given that the default value of None throws an exception at the moment.
