Summary: Python-2.1a2 tests failed on NetBSD 1.5 i386

Details: Experiences from compiling and installing Python-2.1a2 on a NetBSD
1.5
i386 machine with the pth 1.3.7 thread implementation (thread library
installed as a NetBSD package and located in the /usr/pkg directory):

Configure done with the following command:

  CFLAGS=`pthread-config --cflags` \
  LDFLAGS=`pthread-config --ldflags` \
  LIBS=`pthread-config --libs` \
  ./configure 

Added thread information to CFLAGS and LDFLAGS in Makefile:

  CFLAGS=   $(OPT) -I/usr/pkg/include -I. -I$(srcdir)/Include $(DEFS)
  LDFLAGS=  -L/usr/pkg/lib

Build Python-2.1a2 with the `make' command.  Run tests (make test)
with the following results:

  Skipped: al, bsddb, cd, cl, dl, gdbm, gl, imgfile, linuxaudiodev,
  minidom, nis, pyexpat, sax, sunaudiodev, sundry, winreg, winsound

  Failed: fork1, largefile, mailbox, ucn

I noticed the following strange problems: `make test' hangs forever on
test_thread, but test_thread works OK done separately.  test_pty hangs
forever done separately, but works OK during `make test'.

Results from failed tests:

Comment:
The last test was test_ucn and not test_mailbox.  Sorry
about the cut and paste error.
