I am building Python 2.6.4 on a shared server and am encountering test
failures in test_hashlib.py and test_hmac.py, specifically concerning
sha512. I recompiled Python with --with-pydebug and CLFAGS=CPPFLAGS="-
g" and ran the tests in GDB and got the following results:

You should certainly file a bug report (bugs.python.org). If you want
to debug it yourself and include a patch, that's great. Otherwise, just
file the report.

Please be precise about the hw and compiler versions.

I have created this as bug 8073 [http://bugs.python.org/issue8073]
