I only get one, the _tag_link_attrs issue, which I just fixed.  It's 
possible one of these weird errors is preventing another error from 
occurring, though... I guess not, since all the errors I now get are in 
lxml.tests.test_elementtree.

They do work there (at least the method argument that I tested).  So 
it's just in the test environment where it's acting weird.  Which is odd.
