I'm inclined to nudge this towards a libc bug... The exact version of glibc Slackware 7 uses would be important, in that case. Redhat has been using glibc 2.1.3 for a while, which seems stable, but I have no clue what Slackware is using nowadays (I believe they were one of the last of the major distributions to move to glibc, but I might be mistaken.) And then there is the possibility of optimization bugs in the gcc that compiled Python or the gcc that compiled the libc/libpthreads. (That last bit is easy to test though: copy the python binary from a working linux machine with the same kernel major version & libc major version. If it works, it's an optimization bug. If it works bug exhibits the same bug, it's probably libc/libpthreads causing it somehow. If it fails to start altogether, Slackware is using strange libs (and they might be the cause of the bug, or might be just the *exposer* of the bug.) -- Thomas Wouters <thomas@xs4all.net> Hi!
