I just tried running valgrind-2.1.2 on python-2.3.3.

[nbecker at rpppc1 ~]$ valgrind --tool=memcheck /usr/bin/python ./Hello.py ==12284== Memcheck, a memory error detector for x86-linux. ==12284== Copyright (C) 2002-2004, and GNU GPL'd, by Julian Seward et al. ==12284== Using valgrind-2.1.2, a program supervision framework for x86-linux. ==12284== Copyright (C) 2000-2004, and GNU GPL'd, by Julian Seward et al. ==12284== For more details, rerun with: -v ==12284== ==12284== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s) ==12284== at 0x807AFA4: PyObject_Free (in /usr/bin/python) ==12284== by 0x8074A4F: (within /usr/bin/python) ==12284== by 0x8082AF0: PyString_InternInPlace (in /usr/bin/python) ==12284== by 0x8082BA2: PyString_InternFromString (in /usr/bin/python) ==12284== ==12284== Use of uninitialised value of size 4 ==12284== at 0x807AFB2: PyObject_Free (in /usr/bin/python) ==12284== by 0x8074A4F: (within /usr/bin/python) ==12284== by 0x8082AF0: PyString_InternInPlace (in /usr/bin/python) ==12284== by 0x8082BA2: PyString_InternFromString (in /usr/bin/python) [many, many more complaints...]

Does this indicate a problem?
