What do you want to do on a SIGSEGV? On a real fault, you cannot rely on Python internal state, you cannot use any Python object. To handle a real SIGSEGV fault, you have to implement a signal handler using only *signal safe* functions.... in C.
See faulthandler_fatal_error() function:
https://github.com/haypo/faulthandler/blob/master/faulthandler.c#L257
> The documentation for this can now point to the faulthandler module
> (in Python 3).
For your information, faulthandler is available for Python older than 3.3 as a third party module:
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/faulthandler
> segfault is the following C module:
For tests, you can use ctypes.string_at(0) to read a word from NULL.
