Rodrigo Dias Arruda Senra:

So, this seems to be a bug fixed in CPython after 2.4

Phew - good news! ;-)

I'm a *big fan* of the pypy-team and pypy-itself. But I do not think __this particular case__ is fair enough to advertise PyPy getting it wright where CPython got it wrong.

Quite true! In fact, both should implement the same language! And from that point of view it sounds strange to suggest com- parative tests, except maybe for finding implementation buglets like this one, maybe especially in the standard library... Regards, Dinu
