And I, for one, find that especially embarrassing when Uncle Timmy did
the original checkin ;-)
BTW, I just noticed that the Mac buildbot died with a segfault on the
2.4 branch, a few tests after test_capi "finished". I'll backport the
fix for that from the trunk now.
BTW2, has anyone tested their favorite extension module on the trunk
with a release build? If you don't start reporting horrible problems,
I'm not going to revert the patch that causes them :-)
