This is merely a detail for a deeper an issue. CPython's "re" format changed between 2.7.3 and 2.7.5 (a potential compatibility issue). We need to do something about it, but as far as I know, what exactly to do is still not clear. > Second, I'm trying to reproduce some of the more interesting failures > (test_multiprocessing, test_str), but when I try to run the tests on my > laptop, they fail like this instead: You are running "py.test test_str.py" on CPython. This is not really fully supported any more. The buildbot runs them as "pypy test_str.py", with the just-translated PyPy. The best way is to extract a part of the failing test and copy the failing few lines only into pypy/objspace/std/test/test_stringobject.py, for example, where it can be run with py.test on CPython and fixed accordingly.
