Initial Comment:
(Closed bug report #488514 may be related to this bug, 
as it mentions some tests failing.)

If I invoke Python 2.2 with -Qnew, there is the 
following failure with in-place division:

print 5/2
a = 5
a /= 2
print a  # gives 2, should give 2.5

If I insert an explicit "from __future_ import 
division", the program works correctly.
