I am unable to reproduce this in windows with:

Python 3.0a2 (py3k:59584M, Dec 20 2007, 16:24:12) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32

Running the test via rt and in isolation does not appear to fail.  In isolation produces 16 OKs.

When I build from scratch and run most tests (regrtest.py -uall) I get
some strange failures with test_sys.py:

test test_sys failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):

line 302, in test_43581
   self.assertEqual(sys.__stdout__.encoding, sys.__stderr__.encoding)
AssertionError: 'ascii' != 'ISO-8859-1'

The same test doesn't fail when run in isolation.

Interestingly, I saw this with 2.5 as well as 3.0, but not with 2.6!

Any ideas?
