Compiling 2.1.1 on Mac OS X 10.1 - test failures

[Steve Holden]

Richard:

You should go to http://python.sf.net and report these bugs. Follow the link
to the project page, then select bugs. There's a "Submit New" link close to
the top of the page.

It's only in that way you can be sure your bugs will come to the attention
of the development team, especially as the 2.2 release gets nearer.

regards
 Steve
