Don't know about this one.

This is related to some conversion checking that I added a while back, I
believe.

Same thing. Potentially this *should* overflow and the test should expect
that.


Don't take my word on this right now, only looked quickly. I will look at it
this weekend (hopefully). Skip, I don't get the test failures, although I am
a few days behind Python-CVS. Are these very new failures? Could you provide
the verbose output from running these tests indepedently? Thanks.
