I compiled Python 2.5.1 on SuSE 10 and ran "make test", which reported test_subprocess.py to fail on lines 537 and 579 with "permission denied". After a short investigation it looks the problem is that in SuSE 10 the shell (bash) rejects to execute scripts residing in the /tmp directory even if the file permissions would allow that. An easy way of fixing this could be to place the shell script statically in the same directory as test_subprocess.py instead of creating it on-the-fly in /tmp.
