Nope.  Bugfix releases (see PEP 6) are required to have essentially zero
behavioral changes, and IIRC the series of fixes that fixed your bug
caused some changes to the way sre operates, so it was a non-starter for
the 2.3.x series.

Anyway, please close your bug with a note about it being fixed in 2.4
CVS.  As for the other issue, I don't have enough time/energy to even
understand what the issue is.  Given that it's about SAX, I suggest you
start a new thread and hopefully someone else will pick it up.
