 > Could you try with patches #8641, #9243, #9316 to the doctest framework?
 They clean up and fix parts of the error handling.

 Yes. The only problem I have is that these test failures are not always
 reproducible. Tests which failed when I run

 {{{$ make ptestlong}}}

 actually passed later. There's a report from John H Palmieri on sage-
 release of {{{devel/sage/sage/misc/trace.py}}} failing for him three times
 on this machine, then working. This makes any sort of testing difficult,
 and means it will be hard for me to know if s #8641, #9243, #9316 really
 solve the problem or not. But I will try them and report back later.

 > If they don't fix it yet, I can give you a patch which adds some extra
 debugging info to track this down.

 OK, thank you.

 I know there was a recent patch to the doctesting to remove spurious
 errors about files not found - #9316. I don't know if these could be
 related or not.

 I've got other strange results from doctests too, but I'll put that on
 another ticket.
