Importing a module which references undefined externals, or which references libraries that fail initialization, can crash the interpreter. |

Logged In: YES user_id=45365 Unfortunately the fix I had in mind, adding the "return on error" flag to NSLinkModule(), is not good enough. Python crashes while the initialization routine for the dynamic library is running, and NSLinkModule also never gets control back, it seems. I now think this is definitely an Apple bug. Lowering the priority because of that, not because it's not important. I did find an easy way to reproduce the bug, though: "su" to someone else (not root, someone who can't access your window server) and import _Win or something similar. |

Logged In: YES user_id=45365 Apple was already aware of this bug, their bug number for it is #2806458. There is no workaround known, so we'll have to wait until it is fixed. |

Logged In: YES user_id=45365 This seems to have been fixed on OSX 10.2. The import of, say, Carbon.Win will now work fine. But: python will still exit (not crash, a clean exit) when you actually try to access the window manager if you don't have the right so I am keeping this bug open. I will try and find out if there's a way to detect this situation. |
