Zitat von Chris Jerdonek <chris.jerdo...@gmail.com>:

And for Python 2.7 when adding new tests

Hmm. Adding new tests to 2.7 is a questionable activity in the first
place - it should be done very carefully.

does this mean we should
write those tests in a way that attempts to have them pass on Tru64
(e.g. by following the pattern of another test), or should we not
worry about it?

2.7 should absolutely be able to support Tru64 (even though it currently
may not - that would be a bug). Any potential contributor to fix Tru64 support
should find it "easy" to add fixes.

So being cautious and following existing code sounds like a good idea.
The world wouldn't end if the test broke on Tru64, though.

Regards,
Martin
