Some tests fail on KFreeBSD, attaching a first patch from Petr Salinger.

see http://bugs.debian.org/708653 for further issues.

Ronald, could you check if that this works for OSX too?

[loewis]

Note that 3.4 will need a different patch, due to bpo-17684.

[ronaldoussoren]

I don't expect problems on OSX because of this.

However: the patch replaces support.anticipate_failure by unittest.skipIf and that seems wrong to me.

[salinger]

It is related to

http://bugs.python.org/issue12958
http://bugs.python.org/issue17684

The second one changed support.anticipate_failure to unittest.skipIf

[BreamoreBoy]

A different patch is still needed for 3.4.

Python 3.4 is not supported anymore, feel free to create a new issue for supported python versions if the issue still exists.
