Yes, with SP1.

3.7.12. Everything 32 bits under Vista 32 bits.

That works on my machine.

You can always attach to the hanging process and
see where it got stuck.

When I did under Linux, python 2.7.2 would "just hang"
at random after finishing a test.

The weird thing about the assertion is, that the tests

reported. I suspect some compiler optimization issue
or some missing initialization.
