On a compile from the Python 2.5 Final tarball in Linux
on a 64-bit, dual Opteron system, "make test" reports
one failure:
test test_posixpath failed -- Traceback (most recent
call last):
  File
"/archive/home/nvf/temp/Python-2.5/Lib/test/test_posixpath.py",
line 353, in test_expanduser
    posixpath.expanduser("~/")
AssertionError: '/archive/home/nvf//' !=
'/archive/home/nvf/'

In searching the bug database, I see that failures used
to happen on Tru64 and MacOS9, but there was no mention
of failure on a Linux system.
