IIRC, I spent quite a bit of time trying to nail this down. I don't remember finding any useful information on the cause (beyond narrowing it to some tests). As Mark said, this has been happening for a long time. I'm reticent to provide access to the machine, as it's not really mine. I'm not even sure I have access, I haven't logged in for a long time. I'd just like to say thanks again to everyone for making the buildbots more green and also improving the general testing infrastructure for Python. n _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
