[issue7551] SystemError/MemoryError/OverflowErrors on encode() a unicode string

[Mark Dickinson]

Mark Dickinson <dickinsm at gmail.com> added the comment:

Is the first machine also a Linux machine?  Perhaps the difference is that 
the first machine has a wide-unicode build (i.e., it uses UCS4 internally) 
and the other doesn't?

Unfortunately there's not much that the python-devs can do about this 
unless the problem is still present in Python 2.6:  Python 2.4 is now more 
than 5 years old and is no longer maintained, while Python 2.5 is only 
receiving security fixes at this stage.  Can you reproduce the problem 
with Python 2.6?
