Summary: ZODB3/ZEO test failures on MacOSX

Initial Comment:
Running python2.3 test.py -vv from a fresh CVS checkout of ZODB3 results in lots of failures, leaving *lots* of idle processes after the test has run.

Failures start like this:

checkBadMessage1 (ZEO.tests.testConnection.FileStorageConnectionTests) ... 

Error in test checkBadMessage1 (ZEO.tests.testConnection.FileStorageConnectionTests)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "lib.darwin-6.3-Power Macintosh-2.3/ZEO/tests/ConnectionTests.py", line 79, in setUp
    self.startServer()
  File "lib.darwin-6.3-Power Macintosh-2.3/ZEO/tests/ConnectionTests.py", line 134, in startServer
    zeoport, adminaddr, pid = forker.start_zeo_server(
  File "lib.darwin-6.3-Power Macintosh-2.3/ZEO/tests/forker.py", line 95, in start_zeo_server
    s.connect(adminaddr)
error: (22, 'Invalid argument')

(Many more follow.)

This is one of the many processes left after the test:
5202 std- S      0:00.90 /usr/local/bin/python2.3 lib.darwin-6.3-Power Macintosh-2.3/ZEO/tests/zeoserver.py -C /tmp/tmpkgugkW 27580

I would think the space in "Power Macintosh" is causing the problems. This could be seens as a bug in (the MacOSX support of) distutils, but still it would be better to quote the command line args. I've tried to locate where quoting is omitted but I can't find it.

Andrew Kuchling just checked in changes to distutils to turn
spaces into underscores. Maybe you can try again?

(I think there have also receently been changes to the ZODB
test cleanup to kill processes better, but I don't know if
that code is truly cross-platform.)
