Been failing for me for awhile (Mac OS X), but in a bit different fashion:

    % ./python.exe ../Lib/test/regrtest.py -v test_unicode_file
    test_unicode_file
    test_directories (test.test_unicode_file.TestUnicodeFiles) ... FAIL

I thought this was a known issue (Unicode normalization differences?), so
didn't bother to report it.
