I can reproduce it on my Mac.  The croak happens while it is attempting to
raise the exception about a bad file descriptor.  Unfortunately, in
PyErr_Restore the call to PyThreadState_GET() returns NULL which means that
_PyThreadState_Current is NULL.  I see no differences between pystate.[ch]
in the 2.5 and 2.6 branches.  There must be something different about the
way PyThreadState_Swap or PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent are used.  Those are
the only two routines which appear to set it.  

Did this not happen with 2.5.2?
