#46 psyco.full() crashes PythonWin interactive

[D Skiles]

I'm not sure if this is the correct place for reporting
this particular bug, but I'll give it a go.

When using psyco 1.4 with the PythonWin interactive
window under Python 2.4, using any psyco.full()
immediately crashes Pythonwin. When I catch the crash
in a debugger it states that scintilla (1.5.6.0) has
caused an access violation. I pick up a breakpoint at
the end of AfxUnlockGlobals in afxcrit.cpp:

I think this might be a scintilla problem, but I've
never seen this happen with previous versions of psyco
and scintilla. Any ideas?

It is difficult for me to debug this. There is nothing obvious in
the changes between Psyco 1.3 and 1.4 that could cause a
crash in new situations. I don't usually program under
Windows so I don't have (nor know how to use) the
necessary tools, beyond MS' free compiler.

Doing a google on "psyco crashes PythonWin" shows that this
may not be a new problem. There are reports of crashes using
psyco.full() with psyco 1.3 and previous versions of pythonwin.

It might be related to the bugs #1144094 and #1122673, which have just received a fix in the CVS tree. The fix makes a feature introduced in recent versions of Psyco a bit less aggressive -- it was causing problems elsewhere too. If you can, could you see if it helps?
