Jason

I find this very odd in that test_threadedtempfile.py does not
hang on either my Win98R2 box or my Win2kSP2 box.

This is with a locally compiled Python2.1 which has a few changes
but I don't believe any effect the threading ??

FWIW
This test has never hung for me since Rob got the initial
threading to work and this was also true with the unmodified 
Python2.1 source that you bundled for Cygwin on my Win2k 
box,  I never tested it on my Win98 machine.

Is there something about your machine's setup that couid cause 
it to be hanging ??

Cheers

Norman
