It's gotta be a Windows thing:

% cat CVS/Tag
Trelease22-maint
% cvs -q up -P -d
% make
% ./python Lib/test/test_email.py
....................................................................................................................................................................
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ran 164 tests in 1.179s

OK

This on RH7.3.  Could it be the "cvs transforms line endings" problem
we looked at a few weeks ago?  Does Python 2.3 cvs have the same
problem (it's got a nearly identical snapshot of the email package)?

If you want to send me the test output directly, feel free, although
I'm not sure how much time I'll have today to look at it.
