Today I was in contact with a Python user who tried to compile pyprocessing - the ancestor of multiprocessing - on Solaris. It failed to run because Solaris is missing two features (HAVEFDTRANSFER and HAVESEMTIMEDWAIT). Does anybody have a Solaris box at his disposal to test the settings? Neither Python 2.6 nor my backup have the correct settings for Solaris.

I don't quite understand what it is that you want tested - what "settings"?

Most likely, the answer is yes, I can test stuff on Solaris (both SPARC and x86/amd64).

Regards, Martin
