Looks good. Perhaps test_re should be (or should have been) phased out. Test_sre makes many of the same tests (including today's offending one), as well as many new ones, and both run all the many old test from re_test. It must be a (historical) quirk that they both exist. It's mostly a waste to run both, and having two is a maintenance hassle, underscored by the fact that Skip has choosen the less important one of the two (IMHO) to modernize. It's not a high priority, but perhaps I'll look at straightening things out in the (somewhat distant) future. Gary Herron
