Jack,

after installing on two OS 8.6 (7600/G3) and one 9.2.2 systems (TiBook) I
ran into some (and the same) problems. Doing the usual from test import
regrtest; regrtest.main() this is what happened:

- test_import.py left the file longlist.py inside the MacPython-OS9 folder.
I thought it should be removed already after "compiling" the .pyc
equivalent?

- The interpreter stopped after threaded-import. Cursor is blinking,
interpreter is *not* terminated. Moving the window results in a error 3
message.

BTW: contrary(?) to the README socket takes a while but seems to work ...
