[New-bugs-announce] [issue16219] segfault when using xml.etree.ElementTree.XMLTreeBuilder

[Scott Maxwell]

New submission from Scott Maxwell:

I upgraded the meld3 module (used by Supervisord) to work on Py3K and discovered this segfault. It happens every time. I have seen this on the pre-built Mac 3.3.0 and a source-built 3.3.0 on Linux. It does not occur in 3.2.2. It appears to happen in native code so I can pinpoint the exact location of the crash. But it is easy to reproduce.

It is easy to reproduce. Just grab meld3.py and test_meld3.py from my GitHub and run test_meld3. Files are here:
https://raw.github.com/scottkmaxwell/meld3/master/meld3/meld3.py
https://raw.github.com/scottkmaxwell/meld3/master/meld3/test_meld3.py

On just clone my depot.
