For those building python from source what are some tests you do to make
sure the compilation and installation is up to standard. For instance here
are some thing I do:
Tk functionality
sqlite module
Python is compiled with shared object (important for wsgi)
Proper preloading of python libraries (set the proper -rpath flag for gcc)

Any others?  The people who manage distributions what do they check with
for regression tests?
