Below is the tail of the output of 'make test' for 32-bit Python 2.6a2
on Solaris 10 (Opteron) built with the SUN C compiler.

The ctypes test failed since the _ctypes module did not compile.

The test_ioctl failures seems test related.
...
test test_ioctl failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):

...

There is no SSL support and Tcl is not installed on this machine.

Finally, this failure does not show up in the summary:
...
test_parser
Expecting 's_push: parser stack overflow' in next line
s_push: parser stack overflow

On *nix-like systems, ctypes will most likely only compile with gcc.
Since I do not have access to such systems, neither the expertise for
them, this will not change unless someone provides patches.

[loewis]

Please create one report per issue.

[MrJean1]

Done, see issues 2552, 2554 and 2555. Please ignore, close duplicate
2553.

Thanks!
