It seems that on my Fedora 11 AMD X86_64, the problem still exists. In
test_codecs.UTF32Test, test_handlers() seems to run forever, gobbling
memory to 99+% and then activating swap until it fills up swap.
tested by
svn up -r 74869
rm /tmp/pynexttest
.python -Ebb -Lib/tests/regrtest.py -vvs test_codecs
disabling test_handlers() in UTF32Test allows the test to pass and it
completes very fast. It is puzzling that UTF16Test test_handlers works
with what looks like similar code in unidoceobject.c
