Launch python3.3 and then

>>> import traceback
>>> tracebacke.format_exc()

Seomteims a long trace about missing attribute is produced, on subequent of sometimes first call, python executable segfaults.  I see this behavior in an app as well then calling format_exc() under a real exception condition.

I cannot reproduce this. Which platform? Does it happen with
Python 3.4?
