Hello
when running "import test.autotest" in Python2.3b on windows xp,
I get a RuntimeError at the end:

209 tests OK.
2 tests failed:
     test_imp test_os
42 tests skipped:
     test_aepack test_al test_bsddb3 test_cd test_cl test_commands
     test_crypt test_curses test_dbm test_dl test_email_codecs
     test_fcntl test_fork1 test_gdbm test_gl test_grp test_imgfile
     test_ioctl test_largefile test_linuxaudiodev test_macfs
     test_macostools test_mhlib test_mpz test_nis test_normalization
     test_openpty test_ossaudiodev test_plistlib test_poll test_posix
     test_pty test_pwd test_resource test_scriptpackages test_signal
     test_socket_ssl test_socketserver test_sunaudiodev test_timeout
     test_timing test_urllibnet
Those skips are all expected on win32.
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<string>", line 1, in ?
RuntimeError: not holding the import lock


What's up?


test_imp failed like this:
test test_imp failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "C:\Python23\lib\test\test_imp.py", line 22, in testLock
     raise TestFailed, \
TestFailed: release_lock() without lock should raise RuntimeError

Also, test_os fails:
ERROR: test_tmpfile (__main__.TemporaryFileTests)
-----------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "lib\test\test_os.py", line 49, in test_tmpfile
     fp = os.tmpfile()
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied



I'm running this on a regular user account on Windows XP.
