# Test the interpreter (twice, once without .pyc files, once with)
# In the past, we've had problems where bugs in the marshalling or
# elsewhere caused bytecode read from .pyc files to behave differently
# than bytecode generated directly from a .py source file. Sometimes
# the bytecode read from a .pyc file had the bug, somtimes the directly
# generated bytecode. This is sometimes a very shy bug needing a lot of
# sample data.
