dottedname: NAME ('.' NAME)*

[Patrick K. O'Brien]

I know nothing about the compiler code, but what about something like:

>>> None.class.base <type 'object'> >>> Or does this not apply because None is at the front?

Yup, good point, 'None' does make sense as the first NAME in the dotted_name production.
