[C++-sig] Re: Can anybody tell me the other difference betweenthese 2 little programs?

[Conan Brink]

The short description is that the second one works because those handles
all pass out of scope before you call Py_Finalize(), so that
Boost.Python isn't trying to keep anything alive past the call to
Py_Finalize().

The solution (until such time as it gets off the TODO list):  Don't call
Py_Finalize() if you have any Boost.Python objects still alive.

Hehehe, good joke with the "diff" command. Well, if this error is 
something that is in the TODO list, I'll take the way that does not
crash 
for the moment.

Thank you David.
