Re: Python core dump depending on module import order with latest upgrade

Since the latest upgrade the following python program causes an "Aborted (core dumped)" error:

#!/usr/bin/python
import ctypes
import zlib
a = 1

If the order of imports is reversed (zlib then ctypes) no core dump error occurs.

python2.7.exe.stackdump contains nothing of use:
Stack trace:
Frame     Function  Args

Versions are:

uname -srm
CYGWIN_NT-6.2 1.7.20(0.266/5/3) i686

python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Dec 18 2012, 13:50:09)

I get the same result with Cygwin 1.7.17 and Python 2.6.8.  I'm sure that
this information isn't real insightful but it does suggest that whatever
the problem is, it isn't real new.
