Summary: Various Playstation 2 Linux Test Errors

Initial Comment:
I recently downloaded Python 2.2.1 onto my Playstation 
2 with a linux kit installed. It uses a mipsel architecture, 
(mips endian-little) with a Linux 2.2.1 kernel (retrofitted 
with many backported stuff from later versions) and a 
glibc 2.2.2 i believe, also custom modified by SCEI.

Python compiled perfectly the first time, and installed 
flawlessly. On a whim, I decided to run python's testing 
suite. (make test)

The first pass crashed with this error. 

test_re
make: *** [test] Segmentation fault

i moved this test out of the folder to see if there were 
any other errors, and got the same one for test_sre.

After moving these two tests, i got the following results, 
including the lines from the failing tests.

test test_descr failed -- x=2, y=1
test test_linuxaudiodev failed -- (16, 'Device or resource 
busy', '/dev/dsp')
test test_userdict failed -- test failed
3 tests failed:
    test_descr test_linuxaudiodev test_userdict
18 tests skipped:
    test_al test_cd test_cl test_curses test_dl test_gl 
test_imgfile
    test_largefile test_minidom test_nis test_ntpath 
test_pyexpat
    test_sax test_socket_ssl test_socketserver 
test_sunaudiodev
    test_winreg test_winsound
3 skips unexpected on linux2:
    test_minidom test_pyexpat test_sax

The linuxaudiodev actually gave me two different errors, 
no other audio programs were running at the time, so i'm 
suspecting a ps2sd bug on that one. but the other four 
tests I have not tried to isolate yet.

I'll keep at it, Would welcome any recommendations on 
places to look to diagnose these problems. 

This is probably a very-low priority thing, as PS2Linux is 
still a bit of a beta test thing, it would be nice if i could 
isolate this down to some bugs in ps2linux's libraries, so 
that we could fix them without mucking up the python 
code with ps2 stuff.
