[issue3862] test_array fails on FreeBSD7 amd64

[Reed O'Brien]

2.6rc2 and Python-3.0b3 test_array detail
 
test_alloc_overflow (test.test_array.DoubleTest) ... Killed

Fills swap space and dumps core.


2.5.2 

test_list
test_addmul (test.test_list.ListTest) ... ok
test_append (test.test_list.ListTest) ... ok
Killed

The FreeBSD ports patches fix this in 2.5.2. Specifically patching
seq_tests.py to limit test_bigrepeat() to  if sys.maxint <= 2147483647.
no other tests fail; so I don't know immediately what else is patched.
Although there are about 25 patches for the 2.5 port.
