FWIW I managed to build Python 2.6, and a trivial mutation of the
string/unicode hash function (add 1 initially) made only three tests fail;
test_symtable and test_json both have a dependency on dictionary order,
test_ctypes I can't quite figure out what's going on.

Oh, and an unrelated failure in test_sqlite:

  File "/Users/guido/pythons/p26/Lib/sqlite3/test/types.py", line 355, in
CheckSqlTimestamp
    self.failUnlessEqual(ts.year, now.year)
AssertionError: 2012 != 2011

I betcha that's because it's still 2011 here in Texas but already 2012 in
UTC-land. Happy New Year everyone! :-)
