Regarding bug 469773, I think it would be great to have such a
document "Using Python", containing the manual page and platform-
specific hints on how to invoke the interpreter and scripts
(e.g. explaining the shebang for Unices).
I'd be willing to help write up such a document.

I'm trying to write a test for my Socket Timeouts patch [1], which fixes
signal handling (notably Ctl-C == SIGINT == KeyboarInterrupt) on socket
operations using a timeout. I don't see a portable way to send a signal,
and asking the test runner to press Ctl-C is a non-starter. A "real"
signal is

Ping,
I just checked in a change to disable testing 2 uuid functions
(_ifconfig_get_node and unixdll_getnode) that fail on many platforms.
Here's the message:
"""
Disable these tests until they are reliable across platforms. These
problems may mask more important, real problems.
One or both meth
