I'll crank up some OS X installer builds and run them on G3 and G4 Macs

FIrst attempt was a fat (32-bit i386 and ppc) build on 10.5 targeted for
10.3 and above; this is the similar to recent python.org OSX installers.
The good news: on 10.5 i386, running the default regrtest, no signficant
differences were noted from an installer built from the current main
py3k head.
Okay, that's awesome. Thanks.
Bad news: the same build installed on a G4 running 10.5 hung hard in
test_pow of test_builtin; a kill was needed to terminate python. Same
results on a G3 running 10.4.
Okay, that's less than awesome. But still a huge thanks.
Then I tried a couple of random floats:
Python 3.1a2+ (py3k-short-float-repr, Apr 13 2009, 20:55:35)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5490)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
3.1
-9.255965342383856e+61
1.
^C
Terminated <-- kill needed
I don't suppose it's possible that you could run this under gdb and get
a stack trace when it starts looping (assuming that's what's happening)?
I think I might have a PPC Mac Mini I can get my hands on, and I'll test
there if possible.
Eric.
