Thank you very much! I'm glad to see this is a known issue and that some
investigation has already been done. (It's a bit depressing that the bug
is over two years old, though.)

Can you make a small, complete test case that shows the problem? You
could then post that to the bug report, since it seems they are
currently without a good test case for this bug in Python 2.6.

(Discussing the details further in this thread would be
counter-productive; the discussion should go to the bug report.)

Thanks again for finding this!
