FWIW I managed to build Python 2.6, and a trivial mutation of the string/unicode hash function (add 1 initially) made only three tests fail; testsymtable and testjson both have a dependency on dictionary order, testctypes I can't quite figure out what's going on.

In my fork, these tests are failing:

test_dbm test_dis test_gdb test_inspect test_packaging test_set test_symtable test_urllib test_userdict test_collections test_json
