 If you see this thread

 http://groups.google.co.uk/group/sage-
 devel/browse_thread/thread/b7856076ea5aefbd/8d381b77e4d461cb

 where I asked people to test their python build, '''everyone''' who
 responded had one or more failures. {{{test_distutils}}} is a bit
 worrying, as everyone reported that failed for them. There was a report
 that the clean 2.6.5 source code passes this test, but I don't know for
 sure if the 2.6.4 in Sage passes this test. I think it does, in which case
 a patch in Sage, or the Sage build environment is screwing
 {{{test_disutils}}} up.

 I reported the {{{test_float}}} on Solaris upstream

 http://bugs.python.org/issue9069

 but that was found to be a bug in gcc >= 4.4.0, but has now been fixed in
 the gcc source code, so the next release should have the issue resolved.

 That still leaves a few python failures on Solaris that I've not resolved.

 I think people should create individual tickets for individual test
 failures, as there are many different failures on many peoples systems.
 But {{{test_disutils}}} is common to ever single report I see.
