Naddy reported this to me a few weeks ago, but neither I nor shadchin@
could reproduce this. IPython *does* build fine without py-mako
installed.

Here's the twist. If py-mako is installed when sphinx starts, but is
removed during sphinx running, then the crash occurs. So this is a race
condition. Probably dpb is removing py-mako mid-build sometimes.
 
Does this kind of crash only happen for ipython? If so we could simply
mark py-mako as a build depend.
