I don't know if this is the cause of your problem but some versions of
Python have problems when you call Py_Initialize/Py_Finalize
repeatedly. Perhaps you could write a tiny problem that calls these
functions in a loop and see if that crashes? If it does, you should
probably trying upgrading your Python. If it doesn't, you have some
other problem -- from your stack trace, I'd guess it's some kind of
heap corruption, so good luck.
