I may take it as a challenge to write the view but I don't know if I can handle it. I'm still learning how to program C for Python. It may be a good opportunity to learn more. If you don't mind that it may take longer and if somebody could lend me a hand ... :]

Which unit tests are broken for you? testcProfile testdoctest testemail testprofile are broken for me in a vanilla build of py3k. My patch doesn't break additional tests for me. I'll look into it. Maybe I misremember.

I don't see additional failing unit tests. My patch had an issue but I fixed it couple of days ago. Maybe you can't remember the fix.

By the way I may have figured out how to fix the profile tests. Cooll submit to the tracker and assign to me any time.

I can't assign bugs with my current user level but I added you to the nosy list.

test_mail fails because the file Lib/email/test/data/msg_15.txt contains an invalid UTF-8 character in "Da dit postl¾sningsprogram". The text looks like something should fail:

def test_same_boundary_inner_outer(self):
    unless = self.failUnless
    msg = self._msgobj('msg_15.txt')
    # XXX We can probably eventually do better
    inner = msg.get_payload(0)
    unless(hasattr(inner, 'defects'))
    self.assertEqual(len(inner.defects), 1)
    unless(isinstance(inner.defects[0],
                      errors.StartBoundaryNotFoundDefect))
