It's already reported to the bug tracker:

http://www.python.org/sf/210599

Apparently, this has been around since 1.5.2. It's in fact also in the feature request PEP right now: 

http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0042.html

and it's listed as a "Big" project under the "Standard library" heading. I assume we're going to have to live with this for a while yet...

Take care everyone!
