[lxml-dev] Python interpreter segfault assigning to elem.tail

22 Jul 2005

      Thanks for lxml : great library.

Unfortunately the following fragment causes my python interpreter to
crash and burn:

----------------
from lxml import etree

root = etree.fromstring('<html><p></p>x</html>')
for elem in root:
   elem.tail = ''
-----------------

System:

gentoo linux 2004.3 on x86
python 2.4.1
lxml 0.7 (and 0.6)
libxml 2.6.19
