Python 2.3.3 (#1, May  7 2004, 10:31:40)
[GCC 3.3.3 20040412 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.3-7)] on linux2

the code below crashes on fedora core 2:

------------------------------------
import libxml2

file = open("ihanmikavaan.xml", "w")
file.write("<doc>hajoa!</doc>")
file.close()

reader = libxml2.newTextReaderFilename("ihanmikavaan.xml")
reader.Close()

# reading after Close is a seg fault, not an exception
ret = reader.Read()

libxml2 is not a standard part of python.  You should report
this bug to the libxml2 maintainers and/or RedHat.  You can
try starting from one of these links:  http://xmlsoft.org/
