[Zope-dev] zope core dump

I just tried to restart zope and got a core dump.  The backtrace
(pasted below) indicated a problem with the binascii module, and sure
enough, trying to import it reproduced the segfault.  I reinstalled
python and it all worked again.

This isn't strictly a Zope issue but I wondered if anyone's seen
this before, or can explain what might have happened?  I'm a bit out
of my depth when it comes to this kind of thing...

cheers,

seb
