Neal>   Lib/gzip.py:114: Using property (filename) in classic class GzipFile
Neal> may not work

Seems shallow. Just inherit from object.

Neal>   Lib/sched.py:122: Using property (queue) in classic class scheduler
Neal> may not work

Ditto.

Neal>   Lib/tempfile.py:535: Using property (closed) in classic class
Neal> SpooledTemporaryFile may not work
...

Ditto.

Neal>   Lib/multiprocessing/connection.py:378: No global (AuthenticationError) found

This is defined in the init module of the package. Is it accessible from connection.py without further import? (My guess would be no.) A slight code rearrangement or adding imports at the point of the raise statements probably fixes that.

Neal> I haven't looked into the property complaint to see how bad it is.

I'm testing out the inherit-from-object fixes now. Will report back later.
