You should report this to the pycurl project.  The specific 

error message you report is new in Python 2.3, doing a check 

for errnoneous usage of the Python C API.  That check didn't 

exist in Python 2.2.



While it's possible there's a previously unreported error in 

Python 2.3 here, it's much more likely that the problem is in 

pycurl's C code, and that the error there simply went 

undetected before Python 2.3, appearing to work by luck.

Why do you think this is a bug in Python and not pycurl?
