Andrew I MacIntyre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Mark, your patch will probably get the test to pass, but the underlying reason the test is failing appears to be unexpected behaviour of the platform malloc().
FreeBSD 7.0 introduced a new malloc() implementation that relies on mmap() and this is behaving differently to the malloc() implementation in FreeBSD 6.3 which relied on sbrk(). I have posted a query about the new malloc()'s behaviour to a FreeBSD forum and will report what I find out. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3862> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
