[Python-Dev] 2.4 & 2.5 beta 3 crash

[Neal Norwitz]

Thanks Dino.

The attached patch should fix the problem.  Once RC1 is cut, I'll
check this in unless someone beats me to it.  Since the compiler
changed, I can't backport this.  If someone wants to make a similar
fix for 2.4 go for it.

Along the way we ran into this issue which causes CPython to crash when the code below is run.  It crashes on both 2.4 and 2.5 beta 3.  The code's technically illegal, but it probably shouldn't crash either :)
