[New-bugs-announce] [issue16407] Python 2.7.3: test_sys fails when building under 10.7.5 with dtrace support

[yrammos]

New submission from yrammos:

I am building Python 2.7.3 using Homebrew as follows:

    > brew install --with-dtrace --quicktest python

The failing tests are: 
    test_ctypes
    test_sys

Omitting --with-dtrace reduces the failures to one test:
    test_ctypes

@samueljohn from github suggested that I ping Jesús Cea Avión or Ronald Oussoren for this.
