[Python-Dev] Buildbot failures

[Raymond Hettinger]

Some of bsddb tests are failing.  In Py3.0 I switched the bsddb modules from UserDict.DictMixin to collections.MutableMapping.  But, the failures are also happened in the Py2.6 branch so something else must be the cause.  The db.InvalidArgError suggests that one of the defined constants is broken.

There is also a recurring failure in SocketServer.py  returning "ValueError: list.remove(x): x not in list" during attempts to remove a PID from the list of active_children.  Any ideas about what is causing this?

The freelists optimization has been causing periodic failure in test_sys., "test_compact_freelists self.assert_(r[0][2] > 100, r[0][2])".

Also, test_docxmlrpc hasn't been happy. One of the tests isn't getting the exact response string it expected.   Any ideas what is causing this?
