It fails as well, with the same error:
ValueError: source or destination out of range.

However, you will found the following even more interresting.
I had recompiled several versions of python in addition of the standard
python 2.4.3 installed by default. I have repeated the same commands:
- python 2.3.6 recompiled: fails
- python 2.4.3 FC5: fails
- python 2.4.4 recompiled: succeeds
- python 2.5.2 recompiled: succeeds

Note that this is 64 bits python binaries. It could be worth testing on
32 bits version prior 2.4.4 if it's working.

Regards.
Gilles.
