I am investigating this problem (Mladen Bestvina reported it a couple of weeks
ago).  Thanks for the gdb information, I think I can guess where the problem
lies.  The "blame" is to put on the exec-shield kernel patch that comes with
Fedora.  Psyco fails to officially mark some memory regions as executable,
which is not a problem on normal x86 Linux distributions.  I'll try to fix the 
remaining problems and commit them to CVS today.
