[Tutor] crash when importing random or sys module, in my embedded python

Nope, the normal one from the standard library. Just like struct.

That's all I'm doing, trying to set up a list of random integers that
will be used as global variable, nothing more. The only reason I
bothered wrapping the "import random" in a try block was because the
host app in which I was embedding, starting segfaulting, after I added
the "import random" statement.
