[Python-Dev] cPickle (original) (raw)

I just noticed that test_cpickle makes Python crash (with a segmentation fault) when there is no copy_reg. The funny bit is this:

centurion:~ > ./python Lib/test/regrtest.py test_cpickle test_cpickle test test_cpickle skipped -- No module named copy_reg 1 test skipped: test_cpickle

centurion:~ > ./python Lib/test/regrtest.py test_cookie test_cpickle test_cookie test test_cookie skipped -- No module named copy_reg test_cpickle Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I suspect there is a bug in the import code, in the case of failed imports.

Holmes-ly y'rs,
