Thank you. I did get the tests properly running. I'm not sure whether it was
the pyc files or how I was running it, but I first removed all the previous
pyc files, looked at buildbot source, and ran the tests like so:

python pypy/test_all.py --pypy=pypy/translator/goal/pypy-c
lib-python/2.7/test/test_ctypes.py

This ran successfully and gave the same failures as the buildbot. Hurrah!

One question: The tests take quite awhile to run, even for a single file. Is
this normal?

And once again, thanks for helping with such a noob question, I really
appreciate it.

Best,
Mitchell
