On Win98SE, it hangs every time in test_popitem, which I changed like so:

    def test_popitem(self):
        print [1]                    # ADDED THIS
        k, v = self.f.popitem()
        print [2]                    # AND THIS
        self.assert_(k in self.d)
        self.assert_(v in self.d.values())
        self.assert_(k not in self.f)
        self.assertEqual(len(self.d)-1, len(self.f))

It prints [1], but not [2]:

C:\Code\python\PCbuild>python_d ../lib/test/test_bsddb.py -v

test_clear (__main__.TestBTree) ... ok

test_mapping_iteration_methods (__main__.TestBTree) ... ok
test_pop (__main__.TestBTree) ... ok
test_popitem (__main__.TestBTree) ... [1]

A stacktrace at the point it's hung; looks like deadlock:

...

eval_frame() is executing DELETE_SUBSCR.

Good(?) news:  test_popitem continues to hang even if all other tests are
commented out:

C:\Code\python\PCbuild>python_d ../lib/test/test_bsddb.py -v
test_popitem (__main__.TestBTree) ... [1]

Same stacktrace at that point.

I was using a debug-build CVS Python above.  It also hangs the same place
using a release-build Python.
