[Python-Dev] Python 2.5b3 and AIX 4.3 - It Works

2006-08-04 Thread Michael Kent
Because of a requirement to remain compatible with AIX 4.3, I have been forced
to stay with Python 2.3, because while 2.4 would compile under AIX 4.3, it would
segfault immediately when run.

I'm happy to report that Python 2.5b3 compiles and runs fine under AIX 4.3, and
passes most of its test suite.  However, here are a few test failures.  I
realize AIX 4.3 is long obsolete, so is there any interest on the list for me to
report which tests failed and how?

I would be definitely interested in putting my name on such a list.

[Python-Dev] AIX 4.3, Python 2.4.1 fails in test_exceptions with a core dump

2005-06-13 Thread Michael Kent
I'm attempting to switch from 2.3.2 to 2.4.1 on our AIX 4.3 development system.
 I have no problems building Python 2.3.2.  I build Python 2.4.1 using
'configure --without-threads; gmake; gmake test', and always get a coredump
during the tests on 'test_exceptions'.  I've searched for any reports of this
problem on the Sourceforge bug list and here, with no success.  Has anyone seen
this problem?
