Hello,

I've fed parts of the stdlib to pylint and after some filtering there appears to be some things that looks strange, I've filled a few bugs to the tracker for them. Is this useless and taking reviewer's time for nothing ? Please advise, if this is deemed useful, I'll continue further

I think this is valuable work---please do continue!

Just out of interest, how many false positives did you have to filter out in finding the 5 cases above?
