Rob's changes look good (at least) under Windows 2000.  I'm going to
drag out my old 4 GB disk with NT 4.0 SP6a and temporarily convert my
Linux box back to NT.  Just in case that you don't recall, I could only
reproduce the Python hang problem reliably under NT 4.0.

Can you give us another day or two -- I believe that we are real close
now?

Also, please see my (yet to be posted) follow ups to a couple of related
mailing list threads...

Thanks,
Jason
