Subject: _parsebody(): Instead of raising a BoundaryError when no start
X-Git-Tag: v2.3c1~4151
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=034b47acfe0f507cc4b1d8804272ca92d491d06e;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

boundary could be found -- in a lax parser -- the entire body is
assigned to the message payload.
