My "make check" fails with a core dump after "test_zlib".
Runng that test by hand shows:

	: s Python-1.5.2 ; ./python Lib/test/test_zlib.py
	0xe5c1a120 0x43b6aa94
	0xbd602f7 0xbd602f7
	expecting Bad compression level
	expecting Invalid initialization option
	expecting Invalid initialization option
	normal compression/decompression succeeded
	compress/decompression obj succeeded
	decompress with init options succeeded
	decompressobj with init options succeeded
	Bus error - core dumped

Adding a print at the start of the last loop:
	: s Python-1.5.2 ; ./python Lib/test/test_zlib.py
	0xe5c1a120 0x43b6aa94
	0xbd602f7 0xbd602f7
	expecting Bad compression level
	expecting Invalid initialization option
	expecting Invalid initialization option
	normal compression/decompression succeeded
	compress/decompression obj succeeded
	decompress with init options succeeded
	decompressobj with init options succeeded
	Decompress: flush mode=0, level=0
	Memory fault - core dumped

Anyone else seen this?
