Subject: *Don't* kill all local variables on function exit.  This will be done
X-Git-Tag: v1.5a1~377
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0d85be19e29788d6221295e8910f5d9a671eac85;p=python

*Don't* kill all local variables on function exit.  This will be done
by the frameobject dealloc when it is time for the locals to go.  When
there's still a traceback object referencing this stack frame, we
don't want the local variables to disappear yet.

(Hmm...  Shouldn't they be copied to the f_locals dictionary?)
