Yes, I have those guys too. They're called shared libraries, and contain
the machine-executable code for when these functions are called. In the
case of a BeOS version of Python I'd expect to see them because it had a
broken `select` function, but I'm surprised to see that OpenBSD
apparently does also. The error messages I got specifically stated they
were looking for files ending in .py so this isn't the answer.

Interestingly I removed the copy of `select.py` that was downloaded, did
a `make clean` on the Subversion 1.6.0 sources and re-ran the tests and
this problem hasn't recurred, at least up to test 43 which is where I'm
at right now. So maybe the gnomes writing the libraries for Haiku-OS
fixed the select function in the last few days.
