5.2.1 fails 5 tests: SGI Indigo-2 IRIX 6.2 gcc -O2

[Eben Oldmixon]

Can somebody comment on these failures from the Python 5.2.1
distribution test suite?  I found mention of an error from test_re under
SunOS in the Deja News archives, nothing from python's test_long, and
didn't look further.  Are these likely to turn and bite?  I installed
anyway.  I particularly like the non-overflowing of maxint+1, although
'+-1' (!) is a close second.
