[Python-Dev] 2.1c1: 2nd test_asynchat fails on Solaris 8

[Mark Favas]

SunOS asafoetida 5.8, gcc 2.95.2

"make test" fails on running test_asynchat.py for the second time. The
traceback is:

Exception in thread Thread-1:
Traceback (most recent call last):

"/export/home/mark/src/python/CVS/python/dist/src/Lib/threading.py",

socket.error: (146, 'Connection refused')

Looks like Solaris takes a while to shut sockets down? (This is not a
slow box, btw.) Or is there an option to not have the socket linger?

Also, test_sunaudiodev fails, since setup.py tests only whether the
platform is a Sun, not whether there is a /dev/audio as well. Servers
don't have a /dev/audio. This is clearly a minor nit - I did log a bug
against this some time ago.
