I built and am running 2.3.5.  I've built 2.4.1 and 2.4.2 and had
very similar problems.  From the docs, 2.3.5 (or greater) is required.
Note that 1 python test fails on all the builds, test_pty.  It looks
like Z3 comes with it's own pty module, however.  32 tests are
skipped, I don't know if they are significant.

True!  I have no control over this, however.  If I can pin down what
the problem is and what updates are needed to fix it, I can work
with my IT department to patch the system (Ughhh!)

Another approach I can take it to track what happens when the server
gets an http request.  Could someone point me to the right place in
the source code to track an http request?
