[Python-Dev] Missing symbol in sre.py (Python 2.2.2b1)

[Eric Johnson]

There appears to still be a missing public symbol definition in the Python 
2.2.2b1 
version of sre.py 
 
The documentation implies that finditer should work and indeed it is 
defined 
in the module if sys.hexversion > 0x02020000 however it is not listed in 
the 
__all__ module variable. 
 
This means that if I use 
        import re 
I am unable to use re.finditer but if I use 
        import sre 
then I can use sre.finditer. 
 
I thought that the recommended approach was to use import re. 
 
I think this is  the outstanding bug 585882 re.finditer which was for 
Python 2.2.1.
