I've tried the patch - no luck :-(
I'm stealing time on these machines since they belong to
another group.
However I see that SF's compile farm
(http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=762&group_id=1)
have an AMD64 host (amd64-linux1)
Maybe you can shorten the loop ...

On a 32bit system adding the line
nobody:x:4294967294:65534:nobody:/:/bin/false
to /etc/passwd pwd.getpwall() gives me an entry:
('nobody', 'x', -2, 65534, 'nobody', '/', '/bin/false')
and
pwd.getpwuid(-2)
gives me
('nobody', 'x', -2, 65534, 'nobody', '/', '/bin/false')
Maybe for 64bit systems the SETI macro should use
PyLong_FromUnsignedLong() instead of PyInt_FromLong()? Can
you try the following patch?

1. How do I find the largest user id?
2. It's 4294967294
3. Can't attach etc/password since it's a company machine
(IT will kill me :-)
However there is a similar line for nobody with 65534
The hardware is 4 CPU with 16GB of memory.
OS is: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 (Taroon Update 3)

I just tested this on an opteron and it ran ok, so this
problem isn't necessarily opteron/64-bit specific. What is
the largest user id on the system? What is the value of
pw_uid that is causing a problem? Can you attach your
/etc/passwd file? If so, you may want to change any user info.
I have:
nobody:x:65534:65534:nobody:/:/bin/false
I tried adding another nobody with a larger uid, but did not
have any problems with the test. This is on a gentoo system.
