I've seen the problem with 2.6 and 2.7, on RHEL 4 (possibly with a
custom kernel, I can't check at the moment).

I'm working on trying to reproduce it without the proprietary code
that uses it, but so far haven't managed it. There are some custom C
extensions in the system where this is observed, but since the code is
single-threaded I don't think they can have any effect during
marshalling.

Thanks,
