I remember David Beazley (of SWIG fame) wrote something called WAD that claimed to turn segfaults into Python exceptions (hence tracebacks). IIRC it was Linux-specific, and I have no idea how it worked. I guess it could be ported to Windows with SEH, but no idea about OS X. John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
