New submission from Gregory P. Smith <greg at krypto.org>:

cpython/b$ ./python 
Python 3.11.0a3+ (heads/main-dirty:081a214008, Jan 11 2022, 02:48:22) [GCC 11.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import ast
>>> ast.literal_eval('''F"""
... 
... 
... {6
... 0="""''')
Segmentation fault

this was discovered by oss-fuzz.

This may be a recent regression?  It didn't happen on my build from a few weeks ago.  worth testing on older versions.
