FWIIW, on my Solaris 10 (Opteron) machine, there are no import subprocess errors, not with Python 2.4.3 nor with Python 2.5.
/Jean Brouwers PS) Python 2.4.3 is the ActivePython Solaris build 11 from ActivState. Python 2.5 was built from source using SUN compilers, not GNU. There is an ActivePython Solaris build for 2.5.1 but I have not tried that one yet.
