Subject: Somehow, copy() of a classic class object was handled
X-Git-Tag: v2.3c1~1970
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1dca482dbdd42fc9a81cab1ae2f04471511c338d;p=python

Somehow, copy() of a classic class object was handled
atomically, but deepcopy() didn't support this at all.
I don't see any reason for this, so I'm adding ClassType
to the set of types that are deep-copied atomically.
