twitter. fails on setup test

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I did:
1. Build/Install/Test setuptools-0.6c9 (tests were fine.)
2. Build/Install/Test simplejson-2.0.9 (tests were fine.)
3. Build/Install/Test python-twitter-0.5 (2 failures)

I expected a long list of stuff saying methods and stuff that all said OK 
and then a small summary telling me it way A-OK. What I did see was a 
bunch of junk, with 2 failures. Here is my heavily edited output (I just 
cut out the OK lines):

FAILED (failures=2)"

I am using version 0.5 of python-twitter, using python 2.6, on Windows 
Vista SP1

Just so that you know, I have never submitted a bug report of any kind to 
any project before, so I'm sorry if I've done this wrong or left out too 
much information.

Thanks for the very detailed bug report.  I'm almost certain this is a 
duplicate of
issue 26 and the problem was fixed in r120 in the head.  Please try checking 
out the
trunk and rerunning the test.  We'll release version 0.6 in the relatively near
future if you prefer to wait.
