After reading the recent thread about python 2 vs python 3 support, I thought I'd amuse myself by trying to get plpython3 supported in the Fedora packages. That turned out to be unreasonably painful (which is something we oughta fix eventually), but it worked, at least with F16/F17. When I went to try to build it in rawhide, I got these failures from the plpython_trigger regression test:

(The failure is occurring with 3.3.0-0.4.rc1.fc19, whereas I saw no failure with 3.2.3-7.fc17.) I think probably the best thing is to change the test case so it has one valid key and one not-valid one, rather than assuming that the same key will always be complained of when there's more than one not-valid one.
