It is almost surely not this thread that got the SIGSEGV (unless it is a C runtime stack overflow, quite common on BSD systems).
I've got serious wonders about that: 1. The full stack trace had more than 350 frames, which is excessive even for Zope <0.9 wink>. 2. Line 171 of selectmodule.c in Python branch release23-maint is the closing curly brace of internal function set2list(). When a debugger dies pointing to a function's closing curly, it can mean that the generated return-from-function C code is blowing up due to stack corruption. But not enough info to say for sure ...
