Issue 24319: Crash during "make coverage-report" (original) (raw)

While trying out some of the auxiliary make targets on an openSUSE 12.2 system, I got a segfault during the test phase of the coverage-report target. Several Python processes were running as part of the test when the crash occurred. The resulting crash causes the rest of the test process(es) to hang. Ctl-C is required to get back to a shell prompt.

Here's the traceback reported in the terminal window:

I noticed that while it crashes reproducibly, it's not always in the same place. Here's a traceback from a crash in test_exceptions.py:

I've attached the output of pgrep showing the Python processes which were left running. Here's the stack trace from the core file:
