Two itimer tests and an interprocess signal test fail on FreeBSD 6 if any test that starts a thread runs before test_signal. Since FreeBSD7 does not show this behavior, the bug is most likely a platform bug, so this patch just skips the failing tests on freebsd6. ........ ................ --- Lib/test/test_signal.py | 10 ++++++++++ Misc/NEWS | 3 +++ 2 files changed, 13 insertions(+) diff --git a/Lib/test/test_signal.py b/Lib/test/test_signal.py index 6f4a7bf..a7c030e 100644 --- a/Lib/test/test_signal.py +++ b/Lib/test/test_signal.py @@ -139,6 +139,10 @@ class InterProcessSignalTests(unittest.TestCase): self.fail("pause returned of its own accord, and the signal" " didn't arrive after another second.") + # Issue 3864, unknown if this affects earlier versions of freebsd also + @unittest.skipIf(sys.platform=='freebsd6', + 'inter process signals not reliable (do not mix well with threading) ' + 'on freebsd6') def test_main(self): # This function spawns a child process to insulate the main # test-running process from all the signals.
