I've merged this into release26-maint in r71639. But in order to update
Python2.6.2 binary, I think Martin's help is needed. Could you?

I won't be re-releasing 2.6.2. We should make a 2.6.3 release instead.

Agreed. If necessary, and when we resolve the problem, we can do a 2.6.3 release. This can happen soon if the current situation is a problem for Windows users.

Could "soon" at least be after this weekend? We found a small configure issue at PyCon that forces me to build the installers on 10.4 and I'd like to fix that before a next release and don't have time to seriously look into that before sunday.

FWIW. The issue is that printf("%zd") works correctly on OSX 10.5, but fails to print negative numbers correctly on 10.4. If you build the installer on 10.4 the resulting binary works fine on all OSX systems, if you build the installer on 10.5 the repr of itertools.count(-1) is wrong on 10.4 systems.
