pychecker (0.8.18-7) spe-improvements.patch

# Description: Apply SPE improvements to main.py.
#  The SPE (Stani's Python Editor) folks have made some minor improvements to
#  pychecker2/main.py, to make it handle errors better and make it more
#  flexible. The changes are straightforward and look safe to me.  Since SPE is
#  already using them this implies that they work properly.
# Bug-Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/453092
# Forwarded: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=1845213&group_id=24686&atid=382219
