[Python-Dev] Testdrive systems

[Andrew Kuchling]

Portability-related note: I've just fixed a reported compilation
problem with the curses module on Tru64 Unix using a machine made
available by Compaq.  If you go to http://www.testdrive.compaq.com/,
you can sign up for a free 30-day account on a variety of machines:
Alphas running Tru64, FreeBSD, and Linux, and Intel machines running
BSD or Linux.  A nice way to fix reported problems quickly...  The
environment on the systems is a bit Spartan; emacs is there, but no
fancy shells and no CVS (which is especially annoying).
