I don't expect IDLE to be able to pass all the
Python tests.  It does pretty well, considering it's
really two instances of Python communicating with
each other.

test_descr:  there is a special test which fails
which causes IDLE to try to pickle an embedded class,
which is illegal, to communicate with its GUI.

The test_subprocess passes on 2.5.

The universal newline support isn't included in IDLE
because as an editor, IDLE preserves the line endings
in the original file.  Any edits are done using the
'native' line endings for that file.  This allows IDLE
files on disc to be moved between different platforms.

If any failing tests are identified in the future which
affect IDLE's functionality or the correct execution of
'real' Python code, please post a bug on the tracker.
