Very subtle syntax change: in a list comprehension, the testlist in

"for <var> in <testlist> may no longer be a single test followed by
a comma.  This solves SF bug #431886.  Note that if the testlist
contains more than one test, a trailing comma is still allowed, for
maximum backward compatibility; but this example is not:

    [(x, y) for x in range(10), for y in range(10)]
                              ^

The fix involved creating a new nonterminal 'testlist_safe' whose
definition doesn't allow the trailing comma if there's only one test:

    testlist_safe: test [(',' test)+ [',']]
