"Python 2.7.3, Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5, with kernal 2.6.18-308.el5"

So your version is older than mine. Let me check Misc/NEWS... Oh...

"Issue #15219: Fix a reference leak when hashlib.new() is called with invalid parameters."

in the "What's New in Python 2.7.4 release candidate 1" section.

Can you please try a more recent Python 2.7 version to check if it's the same bug?
