If you have Python 3.2, could you please run following code and send me a output? it will show magic bytes used by pyc compiled in that Python version:

>>> import binascii, imp
>>> binascii.hexlify(imp.get_magic())

I don't have any Python 3.2 here and I want to be sure... Thanks.

I have Python 3.2 :

>>> import binascii, imp
>>> >>> binascii.hexlify(imp.get_magic())
b'6c0c0d0a'

Adding the following line to file-5.05/magic/Magdir/python works for me :

 belong          0x6c0c0d0a      python 3.2 byte-compiled
