I guess there are two problems: a) MS_WINDOWS isn't defined, and the relevant code in bltinmodule.c doesn't special-case cygwin, and b) setlocale is defined on Cygwin, but doesn't work. >> (For whats its worth, Cygwin's python 2.5 (as installed on my system) fails >> 2 of the tests in it's version of test_mailbox.py, both with "IOError: >> [Errno 13] Permission denied"). I found that in many cases, this is a virus scanner or the indexing service interfering. They open the file, and then the test suite cannot delete it.
