So this is your own Cython code and not Sage's? If so what does gdb
say when you run the seesion under it and do a backtrace?

That is unlikely to be the cause.

If you can post the code as well as an example that makes the code
segfault I can take a look. It would also be interesting to know if
this only happens on certain platforms or compilers. If you didn't
test just let us know the details where you saw the problem.

Well, with probability 1 there will be another one :)
