Ah, known problem: http://bugs.python.org/issue3936 . The next 2.5.x release
should have the fix, but that probably won't happen until some more important
fix needs releasing.

These are now pushed. If you can find a way to hack the Nevow problem, then
the Tahoe unit tests now run without errors on python2.6 (although there are
a number of deprecation warnings, in nevow, twisted, and foolscap).
