Error, when tests run

[alekzvik]

When I run python setup.py test all tests pass, but then I get following error.

Error in atexit._run_exitfuncs:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/atexit.py", line 24, in _run_exitfuncs
    func(*targs, **kargs)

Error appears on Python 2.6 and Python 2.7.
All tests pass in Python 2.5 without error.

I'm unable to tell what this is. As far as I can tell, its some issue with nose 1.1.2 and being called by something else (see https://groups.google.com/d/topic/nose-users/fnJ-kAUbYHQ/discussion )

If you call nosetests tests.py directly, you don't get those errors, and if you install nose 1.0.0, the errors don't surface either.

I'll keep digging, but I'm not sure what's causing the problem.

It is this bug: http://bugs.python.org/issue15881

There is also a workaround described.
