python2.5 setup.py test

... inside allmydata-tahoe-1.4.1

Eventually stops and runs the CPU up to 100% on a specific test. I am attaching a log of the session.

Details of the machine:

NetBSD quickie 4.99.7 NetBSD 4.99.7 (quickie) #0: Tue Jan  2 14:47:23 PST 2007  root@quickie:/v/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/quickie i386

AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2500+ (single-core, 32-bit)
2.5GB RAM

Python 2.5.2

This is a transitional pthread machine, partway between the M:N -> 1:1 threading model transition. The M:N threads *should* be functional and for all system and most application purposes they are. (KDE, etc.) However, on occasion some software makes assumptions or is built without threading support because configure detected anomalous behaviour.
