There are a couple of spots that might be more controversial. For example, Jython has a file Lib/zlib.py that implements zlib in terms of the existing Java support for zlib. I do wonder if such a file is acceptable in CPython's Lib since its 195 lines of code would be entirely skipped by CPython.

That's a bit annoying. How will we know that the code still works, even though our buildbots don't exercise it? Also, what happens if the code doesn't work anymore?

Regards

Antoine.
