New submission from appidman:
I use paramiko to create SSH sessions to Linux machines, which works great 95% of the time. But sometimes, the Python process which creates the SSH session hangs forever in wait() of threading.py (see attachment 'gdb.txt' for full output).
{code}
(gdb) py-list
239 waiter.acquire()
240 self.__waiters.append(waiter)
241 saved_state = self._release_save()
242 try: # restore state no matter what (e.g., KeyboardInterrupt)
243 if timeout is None:
>244 waiter.acquire()
245 if __debug__:
246 self._note("%s.wait(): got it", self)
247 else:
248 # Balancing act: We can't afford a pure busy loop, so we
249 # have to sleep; but if we sleep the whole timeout time,
(gdb) py-bt
