[pyOpenSSL] Python core dumps when using pyOpenSSL 0.8.0 and threads

[M.-A. L. <ma...@eg...>]

It appears as if the new thread lock support in pyOpenSSL 0.8.0 is
causing serious problems with Python and threads. We have observed
regular core dumps using pyOpenSSL 0.8 which did not happen with
0.7.

There's a patch available on SF which appears to fix the problem:

Any chance of getting that into a new release ?

As it stands, version 0.8.0 is not really usable in multi-threaded
applications.

Thanks,
