I hope someone tries to fix one of the two bugs I listed that were
problems for 2.3 and 2.4 in 2.4.4:

http://www.python.org/sf/780714
http://www.python.org/sf/1548687

The former involves stack allocation errors in subthreads that exists
even in 2.5, which may not be fixable in Windows, and very likely is not
fixable on linux.

The latter is fixable on all platforms.
