Issue #112: Prepare Stackless 3.5, fix test_pdb.test_pdb_issue_20766

Anselm Kruis · Anselm Kruis · commit ec4105e78753 · 2017-04-11T15:18:46.000+02:00
Fix the recently added test test_pdb.test_pdb_issue_20766. This test depends on undefined behaviour of C-Python (invalid value of frame.f_lineno if frame.f_trace is None). Stackless-Python behaves differently, if soft-switching is enabled. This change disables soft-switching for this test. https://bitbucket.org/stackless-dev/stackless/issues/112
