Actually there are four module failures: test_sys, test_packaging, test_distutils and test_subprocess. I haven't looked into all of them yet, but many of the failure messages were "unable to get the locale encoding". > getpath.c is sufficiently byzantine that we don't want to complexify it > too much, IMHO. Right, but the change is unlikely to add significantly to complexity. It would be one static function e.g. named get_executable_path and one call to it, conditional on !isfile(argv[0]), in calculate_path. That would be in two places - Modules/getpath.c and PC/getpathp.c. I'll skip that test_sys test for now, and see where the other failures lead me to.
