We had a long standing problem in both Gentoo and Mandriva
with the following test
sage -t -force_lib "devel/sage/sage/combinat/iet/strata.py"
which is failing for us using the system python shipped with our 
distributions.
As it turns out it is because the python shipped in our system includes
the patch solving:
http://bugs.python.org/issue7491
The patches have been merged in 2.6.5 and 2.7 and they are included
in python-2.6.4 shipped by a number of distros.

This is a friendly warning that it will be an issue for the next python
upgrade.
