Victor: Sorry for the delay in getting back to this.  I'm attaching your full patch again; the diff you posted is a diff against your first patch, while what we need to be able to review it properly is a diff against the tip of the 'default' branch.  You may be able to make such a diff by pulling from http://hg.python.org/cpython and then doing "hg diff -r default Lib/unittest", but that may still not come up with the right changes.  I would suggest stripping your repository of any changesets on default branch that are not present on http://hg.python.org/cpython#default, and recommitting your changes on your own 'issue14534' branch, then you can make a proper patch just by doing "hg diff -r default" (assuming your branch is up to date with default).
