Hello.

I experienced python core dump while running a script
that uses module written with help of Boost.Python.
This script is supposed to run for a long time. After few
hours it crashed.

Stacktrace is:
#0  0x00000000 in ?? ()
#1  0x003ce732 in boost::python::objects::function::call () from /usr/lib/libboost_python.so.2

What could be the cause of this?

OS: Fedora Core 7, Python 2.5 (release 12.fc7), Boost 1.33.1 (release 13.fc7)

Thankyou for any hints.
Best regards, bma.
