Research direction
Start by extracting and running the attached test_too_many_elif.py.zip case to reproduce the parser crash. Trace the parser path for a very long elif chain and compare it with the claim that CPython cannot run the code. Done means the parser handles the case without crashing, with a regression test covering it.
