You *can* actually get Python to crash if you're intentionally mean to
it.  All the ways I know of involve tricking it into blowing the C
stack, like:

	class C:
	    pass

	C.__init__ = C; C()

Not that you could expect that construct to do anything useful anyway;
you wouldn't ever see code like that in an application.

You have to go out of your way doing really bizarre stuff get it to crash.
It's very stable otherwise.  :-)
