all I need is the output of M-x report-emacs-bug,
maybe some example code,
and, hmm, maybe an entry into the tracker with a nice new number?

BTW if you may open an own branch at launchpad, that might be a major 
help. We could play with that lp-forked Pymacs then without any risk.

OTOH could also upload a branch at your repo, if you prefer that.

At third possibility is https://github.com/pdee/pdee
