[Python-Dev] OS X buildbots: why am I skipping these tests?

Buildbot seems to be explicitly not using a PTY.  From the the top of
the test output:

make buildbottest
 in dir /Users/buildbot/buildarea/trunk.parc-leopard-1/build (timeout 1800 secs)
 watching logfiles {}
 argv: ['make', 'buildbottest']
 [...]
 closing stdin
 using PTY: False

I believe this is specified by the build master.

This test seems to work on Ubuntu and FreeBSD, though.
