[New-bugs-announce] [issue18356] help(numpy) causes segfault on exit

[Michelle Arzul]

New submission from Michelle Arzul:

As far as we could tell this bug is only consistently reproducible on Ubuntu 13.04.

A line in pydoc.py causes a segfault when help(numpy) (no other libraries that I know of) exits. The offending method is pipepager().

For a full trackdown and workaround of the problem see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17344974/python-helpnumpy-causes-segfault-on-exit
