Tried to install Python 2.3.3c1

 It keeps core dumping (leaving python.core). I'm not doing 
anything strange, just documented stuff from the manuals. 

  I tried 'gdb -c python.core' and then using 'back', but 
there are no labels compiled in (I hate that...); how can I
get the labels to be included? "./configure --debug" doesn't 
work. 

  I assume without the labels the numbers are 
meaningless. Running this under OpenBSD 3.2. Then, 
where should I submit my core dump (if anywhere?)?

Further details on the Python core dump:

It core dumps (segmentation fault) when I check the database 
for a certain key. The offending statement is: 
x=database.has_key(keystring). database is open and otherwise 
normal.  The database is "gdbm-1.8.3". The offending key is 
"3012a3ec5c796329fee7c242d4df00d6".

try ./configure --with-pydebug
Do all the tests run?  (make test)

Do you still have install problems with the latest Python?
