[pypy-dev] Cheetah on PyPy?

I'm slowly working through some little tests which don't require and
of our libraries at work.  My current test is a script which uses the
Cheetah template engine.  I see that it is buried somewhere in PyPy's
tests (inside genshi?), but my straightforward install of Cheetah
2.4.4 doesn't work because the str() of a compiled template doesn't do
any of the required template expansion.  It just returns what looks
suspiciously like the repr() of the object.

Is there a modified version of Cheetah somewhere (or patch) which
coaxes it to work with PyPy?  Failing that, where is the test suite
code?  I see no references to it as a standalone download, and am
currently working with a binary build of 1.9.

Thx,

Skip Montanaro
