[Python-Dev] AIX 4.3, Python 2.4.1 fails in test_exceptions with a core dump

[Michael Kent]

I'm attempting to switch from 2.3.2 to 2.4.1 on our AIX 4.3 development system.
 I have no problems building Python 2.3.2.  I build Python 2.4.1 using
'configure --without-threads; gmake; gmake test', and always get a coredump
during the tests on 'test_exceptions'.  I've searched for any reports of this
problem on the Sourceforge bug list and here, with no success.  Has anyone seen
this problem?
