I gave the release candidate a try on a PC running Plamo Linux 1.3
(a Linux distribution based on Slackware 3.5) and a Sparc box
running SunOS 4.1.4_JL, both together with two additional packages
PIL 1.0b1 and xml 0.5.  The installations had no problem and
completely succeeded.  Congratulations! :-)

By the way, the cPickle bug in 1.5.2b1 that I reported in this news
group on January 11 (see [1]) has still been alive in 1.5.2c1.  The
attached is a context diff fixing it.  (Excuse me for realizing this
so late, but I didn't re-install 1.5.2b2 on the Sparc box...)
