The issue was reported by Arfrever on #python-dev. The test suite of simpletal [1] was segfaulting with Python 3.3. It doesn't segfault without the _elementtree C extension.

I'm able to reproduce the issue. It may take a couple of runs with a debug build of Python but eventually Python segfaults. So far segfaults occur inside a GC collection run. Benjamin suspects the issue is related to the new GC code in _elementtree.
