FYI, I usually run the Zope trunk tests once a day, on WinXP.  None of
this goes thru WinBuilders, though -- this is doing "test.py -vv
--all" from the root of a trunk checkout immediately after "setup.py
build_ext -i".

The same two tests have been broken there since last October, but all
other tests pass:

As recorded in the bug that points at, for related reasons an
installed Zope 2.8 is probably unusable on Windows (I haven't tried
this since last October -- don't see a point so long as the 1728 bug
remains):
