Right now, running the test suite with -3 spews a load of warnings
since there is a lot of code that hasn't been updated for even simple
things like ``dict.has_key``.

Would turning the -3 flag on make it too hard to diagnose problems?
If people don't think so, I'm happy to have it turned on.  I did find
a minor bug in the test suite when I turned it on and ran the full
regrtest.

Thanks for putting that together!
