It's not worth staring at code to try to figure out things like that. Run it under gdb, examine the relevant data objects when it crashes and see what's broken (e.g. some pointer is unexpectedly null), then set a conditional breakpoint that stops execution when that incorrect condition happens (e.g. the pointer gets set to null), run the program til the breakpoint triggers, see what other condition X caused the condition that caused the crash, set another breakpoint that triggers when X occurs, etc. Work backwards systematically til you find the bug. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
