Ouch!  Needless to say, we haven't seen that, running on a closely
similar platform.  Time for gdb I'd think.  Can you coax a stack trace
out of the core file?  Note that if there are reference counting (or
other memory) bugs, the core file trace may be useless.

In that case, run python2 under gdb and you should catch the crash at
a more useful place.
