[issue3475] _elementtree.c import can fail silently

Brian Harring <ferringb [at] gmail> added the comment:

At this point, this affects 2.5, 2.6, and 3.1 (and the normal 1.0.5
release of cElementTree); what's required to get this fixed and queued
up for micro/minor releases?

Sidenote, the patch posted above still leaks a reference-

Fredrik Lundh <fredrik [at] effbot> added the comment:

Note that "fail silently" is a bit of a misnomer - if the embedded import
doesn't work, portions of the library will fail pretty loudly. Feel free
to use some variation of the suggested patch, or just wait until the next
upstream release gets imported (if ever).
