All are missing parameters. I'm not sure of the proper signature, so I didn't fix these:

Lib/encodings/punycode.py:217: No global (errors) found Lib/encodings/utf8sig.py:33: No global (errors) found Lib/encodings/uucodec.py:109: No global (errors) found

Fixed in r46915 and r46917.

IIUC (and I probably don't), mbcs is on windows only. But should I be able to import encodings.mbcs on Linux or is this expected?

import encodings.mbcs Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "Lib/encodings/mbcs.py", line 14, in class Codec(codecs.Codec): File "Lib/encodings/mbcs.py", line 18, in Codec encode = codecs.mbcsencode AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'mbcsencode'

mbcs_encode() is compiled conditionally in Modules/_codecsmodule.c with "#if defined(MS_WINDOWS) && defined(HAVE_USABLE_WCHAR_T)".

Should encodings/mbcs.py be made unimportable on non-Windows?

Servus, Walter
