Hi Guys,

I'm hoping you can help in the effort to get xlrd ported to Python 3, 
which is almost done, just need to get all the CI running smoothly...

Here's the current state of play:

http://jenkins.simplistix.co.uk/job/xlrd/

The three failing jobs are a bit puzzling, with exceptions along the 
lines of "InterpreterNotFound: python3.x":

http://jenkins.simplistix.co.uk/job/xlrd/3/TOXENV=py32,label=mac/console
http://jenkins.simplistix.co.uk/job/xlrd/3/TOXENV=py33,label=mac/console
http://jenkins.simplistix.co.uk/job/xlrd/3/TOXENV=py33,label=windows/console

...but, on the mac:

MiniMe:~ chris$ which python3.2
/usr/local/bin/python3.2
MiniMe:~ chris$ python3.2
Python 3.2.3 (default, Jan 30 2013, 22:00:30)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.1.00)] on 
darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> ^D
MiniMe:~ chris$ which python3.3
/usr/local/bin/python3.3
MiniMe:~ chris$ python3.2
Python 3.2.3 (default, Jan 30 2013, 22:00:30)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.1.00)] on 
darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

...which are all fresh python installs built from source this evening.

On the Windows front:

C:\Users\Chris W>c:\Python32\python.exe
Python 3.2.3 (default, Apr 11 2012, 07:15:24) [MSC v.1500 32 bit 
(Intel)] on win
32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> ^Z

C:\Users\Chris W>c:\Python33\python.exe
Python 3.3.0 (v3.3.0:bd8afb90ebf2, Sep 29 2012, 10:55:48) [MSC v.1600 32 
bit (In
tel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> ^Z

Both are installed in the same way, using the MSI installer from 
python.org, yet tox/shiningpanda fixs 3.2 but not 3.3.

Any ideas what's going on here?

Chris
