Comment:
This also fails using "./python -c 'import test.autotest'" from the build area -- the important point seems to be running the test using import test.autotest instead of running test/regrtest.py as a script.

Changed to Fixed and Closed.  Pinned on

from test.test_support import verbose

in test_getopt.py, which was causing a 2nd copy of test_support to get loaded with "the wrong" verbose value -- but only sometimes, depending on how you invoked regrtest!

Guido fixed it (or at least said he did <wink> -- make sure you try it again!).
