You would expect the error to say line 3 not line 1.

Error in pyflakes it slightly different, I'm now a bit confused about whether this should be posted here or on the pyflakes' launchpad.
I'll leave it open here, let me know if you want me to close here and resubmit elsewhere.

So https://bugs.launchpad.net/pyflakes/+bug/1666811 was reported this morning. PyFlakes doesn't report columns so the error may be slightly dissimilar. That said, this is definitely a bug in pyflakes.

Thanks, sorry for missing that. I'm guessing you want the issue left open until it's fixed upstream?

According to https://bugs.launchpad.net/pyflakes/+bug/1666811/comments/3 this is fixed/improved with Python 3.6.3.
