I have found a little more information here that might be relevant (from
Python forums,
https://discuss.python.org/t/segfault-using-sage-function-with-try-except-alarminterrupt/16983/10),
and I'm hoping this might drum up some interest before I blindly try to
submit a bug report.

It's possible my vanilla Python code is not playing well with Sage - which
is apparently written in Cython. If someone could let me know how to
"cythonize" the follow code block, that would be helpful:

alarm(5)
    try:
        grpstr = str(G.structure_description())
    except ValueError:
        if G.simplified().relations() == ():
            grpstr = "F" + str(G.simplified().ngens())
        else:
            grpstr = "--"
            ExCases += 1
            pass
    except AlarmInterrupt:
        grpstr = "--"
        ExCases += 1
        pass
    except:
        print("Some Unhandled exception!")
        grpstr="I broke!"
        pass
    cancel_alarm()
