I get similar failures to Sergey on Ubuntu 8.10, which has Python 2.5.2.

I had thought my Mac OS X 10.5 failures might have been a result of  
the crufty oldish wxPython/twisted that are installed as part of the  
OS, but on Ubuntu I don't have either of those installed.

It looked to me as if some prior tests might have left some globals in  
a crufty state (since those tests pass when you run test_sets.py by  
itself), but I've been unable to figure out yet which those prior  
tests might be.
