James G. sack (jim) <jgs...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

It seems that on my Fedora 11 AMD X86_64, the problem still exists. In 
test_codecs.UTF32Test, test_handlers() seems to run forever, gobbling 
memory to 99+% and then activating swap until it fills up swap.

tested by 
  svn up -r 74869
  rm /tmp/pynexttest
  .python -Ebb -Lib/tests/regrtest.py -vvs test_codecs

disabling test_handlers() in UTF32Test allows the test to pass and it 
completes very fast. It is puzzling that UTF16Test test_handlers works 
with what looks like similar code in unidoceobject.c
