Oops, missed that post - that was indeed the problem. With that fixed, tests are all good on this system. I'll give the patch a look anyway, but I'm going to have trouble diagnosing things that don't fail on my development machine. As far as the test_reprlib failure goes, I seem to recall addressing a similar problem elsewhere in the standard lib by replace a "%r" code with "'%s'" to get the single quotes without the backslash escaping. A similar change should probably do the trick here.
