I know of another user who does not have this problem too. I noticed
that both of these users do not have openssl-devel installed. As an
experiment, I removed the openssl-devel package and built a completely
new Python 2.6.1. I was able to run test_asynchat in a loop 300 times
without any core dumps [1]. Additionally, I was also able to run the
regression test without any of the threading related tests core dumping.
As another experiment, I ran Cygwin Ports Python 2.6.1 and it core dumps
in exactly the same way as the one I built when I had the openssl-devel
package installed.
Yaakov, did you have openssl-devel installed when you built Python
2.6.1? If so, are you able to run the regression test [2] without
threading related problems?
George, are you willing to install openssl-devel, build a completely new
Python, run the regression test [2], and report back your findings to the
list?
Thanks,
Jason
[1] Although test_asynchat failed occasionally (about 5% of the time)
with a "sem_init: Resource temporarily unavailable" error.
[2] Run at least test_asynchat with something like the following:
./python.exe -E -tt Lib/test/regrtest.py -l test_asynchat
