[New-bugs-announce] [issue4358] Segfault in stringobject.c

[Farshad Khoshkhui]

New submission from Farshad Khoshkhui <farshadkh at gmail.com>:

I'm encountering random segfaults on multiple machines. By examining
core dumps, it's all happening  in stringobject.c (_PyString_Resize or
string_join). 
By using pyframev I figured out it's always happening inside
xmlrpclib.py (/usr/lib/python2.5/xmlrpclib.py (716): dump_struct or
/usr/lib/python2.5/xmlrpclib.py (627): dumps)

I'm using Python 2.5.2 on debian in a threaded environment with heavy
use of xmlrpc.
