Hrvoje Nikšić <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Note that the item retrieved by PyList_GET_ITEM must be increffed before being passed to the function. Otherwise mutating the list can remove the item from the list and destroy the underlying object, in which case the current maxitem can refer to a freed object. This pitfall is described in http://docs.python.org/extending/extending.html#thin-ice in some detail.
