Ah, sorry. I misremembered the history - you are right, I suspect this is fixed (at least to the extent that my buildbot isn't permanently red :-)) On rereading, I get the impression that a cleaner fix may be possible by using the ideas in the patch for 9931, but that's probably for another time. > http://bugs.python.org/issue9931 > by Yamamoto is marked for all 3 versions.

Then it can move on to commit review stage. OK, thanks. I'll see if I can provide a review, and see how it goes from there. Really, it's not that urgent that this gets fixed in the wider scheme of things - but as my buildbot is a bit useless while the problem remains, I'm motivated to do what I can to work on it. I'm just a little limited in what I can do, hence the request for suggestions. > PS. Providing links like the above makes it easier for multiple people to > take a look and respond. You're right, and I apologise for that. I sent the email in a hurry and didn't consider others before sending.
