Aside from the usual suspects I have three tests failing in MacPython 2.2.2: testatexit, testemail and testhttplib.

The first one should be easy to fix: backport the revision 1.7 fix. Would that cause any problems on other platforms?

No problemo.

The other two I have no idea of what could be causing them, so I need suggestions. I can't copy/paste, so I'll retype a bit.

testemail: assertion failed, 2042 != 2. from line 1793 in testcrlfseparation. Could this have something to do with MacPython 2.2's "poor man's universal newlines"? (MacPython 2.2.X will read both \r and \n as \n for files opened in text mode, but not \r\n. This quick hack was put in to make 2.2 usable on OSX).

Is in Barry's capable hands.

testhttplib: mismatch in lines 9-12 of expected output. It wanted two header: Set-Cookie: lines, but got nothing.

Probably a line ending problem. I notice that those two lines end with \r\n! I don't understand why the test uses \r\n. I propose to change all the \r\n to \n in test_httplib.py and ditto in output/test_httplib. If you can get that working, feel free to check it in; or I can do it.
