Followup #2...

Yesterday I whittled my problems with testsqlite on my OSX g5 to testctypes and testsqlite: ./python.exe Lib/test/regrtest.py -l -f tests testctypes testsqlite test testsqlite failed -- errors occurred; run in verbose mode for details 1 test OK. 1 test failed: testsqlite Today I refined things further. I renamed all the test*.py files in Lib/ctypes/test/ until all I was left with was testfind.py. It fails if that's the only ctypes test script run: $ ls -l *.py -rw------- 1 buildbot buildbot 6870 Oct 20 06:30 init.py -rw------- 1 buildbot buildbot 624 Oct 20 06:30 runtests.py -rw------- 1 buildbot buildbot 3463 Oct 21 12:52 testfind.py montanaro:~/pybot/trunk.montanaro-g5/build/Lib/ctypes/test buildbot$ cd - /Library/Buildbot/pybot/trunk.montanaro-g5/build montanaro:~/pybot/trunk.montanaro-g5/build buildbot$ ./ python.exe Lib/test/regrtest.py -l -f tests testctypes testsqlite test testsqlite failed -- errors occurred; run in verbose mode for details 1 test OK. 1 test failed: testsqlite testfind.py contains checks for three OpenGL libraries on darwin: gl, glu and glut. If I comment out all those tests, testsqlite succeeds. If any of them are enabled, testsqlite fails.

According to a comment in (IIRC) the pyOpenGL sources GLUT on OSX
does a chdir() during initialization, that could be the problem here.
