Stefan Krah: "I don't understand how the original issue is fixed if 1e7b636b6009 exhibits the SystemError" "SystemError: returned NULL without setting an error" is a generic error, basically it says that a C function has bug :-) It's hard to know exactly which C function has the issue. "and the very next revision 4a5b61b0d090 (the fix) segfaults" A segfault is not a SystemError: it's a new bug. "Sure, it can be a third party issue, but this constellation does seem pretty strange." In case of doubt, I prefer to open a new issue. Please let's continue in the issue #28120 (see my questions there!).

exhibits the SystemError"

"SystemError: returned NULL without setting an error" is a generic error, basically it says that a C function has bug :-) It's hard to know exactly which C function has the issue.


"and the very next revision 4a5b61b0d090 (the fix) segfaults"

A segfault is not a SystemError: it's a new bug.


"Sure, it can be a third party issue, but this constellation *does* seem pretty strange."

In case of doubt, I prefer to open a new issue. Please let's continue in the issue #28120 (see my questions there!).
