Add new utility function, reap_children(), to test_support. This should
be called at the end of each test that spawns children (perhaps it
should be called from regrtest instead?). This will hopefully prevent
some of the unexplained failures in the buildbots (hppa and alpha)
during tests that spawn children. The problems were not reproducible.
There were many zombies that remained at the end of several tests.
In the worst case, this shouldn't cause any more problems,
though it may not help either. Time will tell.

According to the man pages on Gentoo Linux and Tru64, EACCES or EAGAIN
can be returned if fcntl (lockf) fails. This fixes the test failure
on Tru64 by checking for either error rather than just EAGAIN.

Use staticly build copies of zlib and bzip2 to build the OSX installer, that
way the resulting binaries have a better change of running on 10.3.
This patch also updates the search logic for sleepycat db3/4, without this
patch you cannot use a sleepycat build with a non-standard prefix; with this
you can (at least on OSX) if you add the prefix to CPPFLAGS/LDFLAGS at
configure-time. This change is needed to build the binary installer for OSX.

Instead of doing a make test, run the regression tests out of the installed
copy. This will hopefully catch problems where directories are added
under Lib/ but not to Makefile.pre.in. This breaks out the 2 runs
of the test suite with and without -O which is also nicer.
Attempt to fix build failure on OS X and Debian alpha; the symptom is
consistent with os.wait() returning immediately because some other
subprocess had previously exited; the test suite then immediately
tries to lock the mailbox and gets an error saying it's already
locked.
To fix this, do a waitpid() so the test suite only continues once
the intended child process has exited.
[Bug #1512163] Use one set of locking methods, lockf();
remove the flock() calls.
On FreeBSD, the two methods lockf() and flock() end up using the same
mechanism and the second one fails. A Linux man page claims that the
two methods are orthogonal (so locks acquired one way don't interact
with locks acquired the other way) but that clearly must be false.
Without this patch IDLE will get unresponsive when you open the debugger
window on OSX. This is both using the system Tcl/Tk on Tiger as the latest
universal download from tk-components.sf.net.

Fix for an obscure bug introduced by revs 46806 and 46808, with a test.
The problem of checking too eagerly for recursive calls is the
following: if a RuntimeError is caused by recursion, and if code needs
to normalize it immediately (as in the 2nd test), then
PyErr_NormalizeException() needs a call to the RuntimeError class to
instantiate it, and this hits the recursion limit again... causing
PyErr_NormalizeException() to never finish.
Moved this particular recursion check to slot_tp_call(), which is not
involved in instantiating built-in exceptions.
Brett Cannon [Wed, 21 Jun 2006 16:57:57 +0000 (16:57 +0000)]
At the C level, tuple arguments are passed in directly to the exception
constructor, meaning it is treated as *args, not as a single argument. This
means using the 'message' attribute won't work (until Py3K comes around),
and so one must grab from 'arg' to get the error number.

TestHelp.make_parser(): This was making a permanent change to
os.environ (setting envar COLUMNS), which at least caused
test_float_default() to fail if the tests were run more than once.
This repairs the test_optparse -R failures Neal reported on
python-dev. It also explains some seemingly bizarre test_optparse
failures we saw a couple weeks ago on the buildbots, when
test_optparse failed due to test_file failing to clean up after
itself, and then test_optparse failed in an entirely different
way when regrtest's -w option ran test_optparse a second time.
It's now obvious that make_parser() permanently changing os.environ
was responsible for the second half of that.

The hppa ubuntu box sometimes hangs forever in these tests. My guess
is that the wait is failing for some reason. Use WNOHANG, so we won't
wait until the buildbot kills the test suite.
I haven't been able to reproduce the failure, so I'm not sure if
this will help or not. Hopefully, this change will cause the test
to fail, rather than hang. That will be better since we will get
the rest of the test results. It may also help us debug the real problem.

Prevent spurious leaks when running regrtest.py -R. There may be more
issues that crop up from time to time, but this change seems to have been
pretty stable (no spurious warnings) for about a week.
Other modules which use threads may require similar use of
threading_setup/threading_cleanup from test_support.
