[capi-sig] Python segfaulting on exit

Recently (I suspect after I upgraded to Ubuntu Intrepid), python has 
been segfaulting whenever it exits AND my Cpp extension has been importing.

The exact error (from valgrind is):

==11326== Process terminating with default action of signal 11 (SIGSEGV)
==11326==  Access not within mapped region at address 0x40
==11326==    at 0x5BAF974: (within /lib/libselinux.so.1)

Has anyone seen this before? This is not a showstopper for me, but it is 
a bit annoying.

Thanks,
Aaron
