Summary: segmentation fault importing huge source

Initial Comment:
I posted a problem with importing a very large sourcefile 
in python 2.2.1 to clp, see 
<news:3da070ec.18868296@news.t-online.de>. 
Someone suggested that 2.3 would handle this situation 
much better, so I got the current version from CVS, built 
it with cygwin and tested it. That version raises a 
segmentation fault. The stackdump shows an 
ACCESS_VIOLATION somewhere inside python2.3.exe.

You can download the source that causes this at

http://p-nand-q.com/python/toobigfor2.3.zip

but beware, the zipped source is 613k large (unzipped 
around 4.2 mb).
