test_mailbox is still failing with lots of errors. The module needs extra embracement and love on Windows. Most to all of the problems are related to the newline separator \r\n. Some modules are also failing when I run a refleak regression test, see http://bugs.python.org/issue1540 I've ironed out the last cosmetic problems in the PCbuild9 directory and profile guided optimization builds. A PGO version can be build with "build_pgo -2" (runs the complete unit test suite) or "build_pgo" (runs PyBench) in a VS 2008 command shell. The x64 builds are looking fine except of tkinter (it doesn't build) but I'm not able to test the x64 version on my computer. Could you please add two comments to the release notes for Windows users? * On Windows Python can't be run from a directory with non ASCII chars in its path name. #1342 * The current releases of MinGW and Cygwin can't build Python extensions since they don't support msvcr90.dll. The necessary bits and pieces are already in Python and cygwin cvs. > I see a few tests leaking; in particular test_ssl (1522 refs leaned > per run!) and test_urllib2_localnet (3 per run).

The test_ssl tests are only leaking with the -unetwork option. On my Ubuntu box they are leaking 1536 references per turn. For heaven's sake I can't remember how I found the leaking code lines the last time. Py_DUMP_REFS dumps too many information.
