With the following jump.py script:
def foo():
    import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
    while 1:
        pass
    return # this is line 5

foo()


The following debugging session aborts on Python 3.5.0a0 (default:334c01aa7f93, Dec  3 2014, 16:20:19):
$ python jump.py
> /tmp/test/jump.py(3)foo()
-> while 1:
(Pdb) next
> /tmp/test/jump.py(4)foo()
-> pass
(Pdb) jump 5
python: Objects/frameobject.c:258: frame_setlineno: Assertion `blockstack_top == 0' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

Building on OS X 10.10 with the head of the code tree (as of today), I cannot reproduce this.  Also the disassembly looks fine:

$ python3.5 jump.py 
> /Users/raymond/tmp/jump.py(3)foo()
-> while 1:
(Pdb) next
> /Users/raymond/tmp/jump.py(4)foo()
-> pass
(Pdb) jump 5
> /Users/raymond/tmp/jump.py(5)foo()
-> return # this is line 5
(Pdb) list
  1  	def foo():
  2  	    import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
  3  	    while 1:
  4  	        pass
  5  ->	    return # this is line 5

I should have mentionned that I am running a debug build of python.
