Several tests for Python 3.5.0 failed. 
The install is a local one on a shared virtual server from bluehost.com
This is a local user install, with a prefix in $HOME/python directory. 
Output of uname -a:
Linux box874.bluehost.com 3.12.35.1418868052 #1 SMP Wed Dec 17 20:04:02 CST 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

It would seem that there are no permissions to spawn() a new process, and to write temporary files to /tmp

The tests should be able to work on a virtual server, or the test should check if there are permissions to fork a process and write to a system-wide temporary directory. Of course many installations use Python on virtual hosts and often the system-wide default installation on Linux systems is 2.7.0. The tests need to fail gracefully or accommodate the lack of permissions for to fork new processes and write to system-wide temporary directories.
