I contacted David Bolen for some details about the his buildbot because I can't reproduce the failure on any Windows XP, Server 2003, or 7 box that I have, and it's also not a problem on the other XP buildbot. He's traveling at the moment but will try to get me access to the box after the weekend is over.

Might it be significant that he's running a Cygwin build of Python? I've only run the tests on a native Win32 build myself, and I imagine that's true for you too... TJG The tests are run on a native Win32 build as compiled by VS2008. The functionality is Win32 specific and wouldn't work on Cygwin, so the tests are skipped there. I believe Cygwin is used for kicking off the tests and other buildbot stuff, but they don't actually run through Cygwin. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
