This looks like the py_malloc problem in Python 2.11, which causes segmenatation faults like you're seeing.
I did some more investigation on this problem, and my conclusion was that a change in Python starting in version 2.0.1 (also in 2.1, which chronologically came out first) is causing these crashes. In a nutshell, when using O format with PyArgs_FromTupleAndKeywords() in < 2.0.1, you get a new reference, and in >= 2.0.1, you get a borrowed reference. The latter you need to Py_INCREF() if you want to keep. If you do this in < 2.0.1, you don't crash but you leak memory. See the zope-dev archives for the whole story. -- Andy Dustman PGP: 0x930B8AB6 @ .net http://dustman.net/andy I'll give spammers one bite of the apple, but they'll have to guess which bite has the razor blade in it.
