python-1.5.2 is broken with current this week when compiled with the
"--with-fpectl" option (a hack using jmpbuf.h, signal.h etc.) which is
default in the ports collection. Exponentiation fails i. e.

 Python 1.5.2 ....  [GCC egcs-2.91.66 19990314 (egcs-1.1.2  on freebsd4
 Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam
 >>> 3**1.5
 Traceback (innermost last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
 OverflowError: (14, 'Bad address')
 >>> 

(without --with-fpectl): make test output:

  52 tests OK.
  1 test failed: test_fcntl
  8 tests skipped: test_al ... test_sunaudiodev

Last week the fcntl-tests failed the first time but this does no harm to 
i.e. the "sketch" program.
