test_posix hung on Solaris 9 ... traced to getcwd test hanging. This in turn was traced to the very long filename case... It seems posixmodule was modified (since py2.4.3 at least) to retry getcwd with a bigger buffer if ERANGE occurs. However on Solaris 9 its not documented that ERANGE also occurs if getcwd(3) can't cope with the path length, even if the buffer is big enough. This causes posix_getcwd() to loop malloc'ing a bigger buffer, forever. I enclose a patch that limits the damage, to 1Mbyte at least. (not sure if more recent Solaris 9 patches than we have provide another solution) On Solaris 10, there is no problem as the getcwd() is implemented as a system call. |

Are there any Solaris people who could look at this? The patch file contains a very small change to posixmodule.c. |
