> Would it also be the case for 'await' ? "async" requires to maintain a "async_def" state. It seems like await doesn't need a state for itself, but rely on the "async_def" state which has been fixed. Extract of Parser/tokenizer.c: /* Current token length is 5. */ if (tok->async_def) { /* We're inside an 'async def' function. */ if (memcmp(tok->start, "async", 5) == 0) { return ASYNC; } if (memcmp(tok->start, "await", 5) == 0) { return AWAIT; } }
