[Python-Dev] 3.2.1 and Issue 12291

[Vinay Sajip]

I just filed an issue which shows a serious breakage in the marshal module:

"file written using marshal in 3.2 can be read by 2.7, but not 3.2 or 3.3"

http://bugs.python.org/issue12291

Perhaps this issue should be marked as a release blocker for 3.2.1 - what do
others (particularly Georg, of course) think? While it does appear to have been
broken for some time, it seems a bit too serious to leave until a 3.2.2 release.

Regards,
