[Python-Dev] Running tests on freebsd5

[PieterB]

Hi,

I just checked out the Python CVS head, ran configure and compiled
succesfully on FreeBSD 5.0. I then ran 'make tests', and had two
failing tests. I don't think these errors are related to FreeBSD5.0,
so I post them here. Can somebody add the lists of tests for
'freebsd5' to regrtest.py, and have a look at these tracebacks?

2 tests failed:
    test_socket test_tempfile
34 tests skipped:
    test_aepack test_al test_bsddb test_bsddb185 test_bsddb3 test_cd
    test_cl test_curses test_dbm test_email_codecs test_fcntl
    test_gdbm test_gl test_imgfile test_ioctl test_linuxaudiodev
    test_locale test_macfs test_macostools test_mpz test_nis
    test_normalization test_ossaudiodev test_pep277 test_plistlib
    test_scriptpackages test_socket_ssl test_socketserver
    test_sunaudiodev test_timeout test_unicode_file test_urllibnet
    test_winreg test_winsound
Ask someone to teach regrtest.py about which tests are
expected to get skipped on freebsd5.

When running test_socket.py, I get the following traceback:
