The parser module validates st instances that it builds from list or tuple structures. This validation fails for parse trees that include relative imports because it fails to correctly count the dots that immediately follow the "from" token. Here is a test and a patch. This bug probably extends back to all Python 2 versions that support relative import, but I have not checked it. Fixing this has immediate value to me because the QPY package depends on the parser module to convert list structures into st instances. (In the long run, I wonder if the verification part of the sequence2st() function could be made optional or dropped, since the current pattern requires to parser module to be updated every time the language grammer changes.)

Confirmed the presence of this same problem in the source code of parsermodule.c in branches release25-maint and release26-maint.
