Summary: Python crashes with bus error on sparc64.

Initial Comment:
Running openbsd 3.5/sparc64 with python 2.3.3.  If I tell my zope (2.
7.0) installation to setuid to user _zope and start it as root so it can 
bind to port 80, python crashes with sigbus.  Its fine if I start it out 
as user _zope and just let it use port 8080 though.  I tried to compile 
python with debugging symbols to get a backtrace, but all I get is 
___start() and main() then the rest of the trace is all ??.  Feel free to 
email me for info, like if you can help me get a real backtrace or 
something.

Closing as 3rdParty and WontFix.  Looks like a 64-bit platform 
bug in Zope's C code; details at

Sorry, this is a zope bug for sure, nevermind.

Can you find a core file, or modify your system so that a
core file is generated? With a core file, you can run "gdb
python core", then invoke "bt" to find precisely where it
crashes.

There is a good chance that the bug is in one of Zope's
extension modules, in which case it would not be a Python bug.
