Script to reproduce the crash

Attached script crashs randomly on Python 3.4. It's a bug in Python which was fixed in Python 3.5 and newer: http://bugs.python.org/issue26617

The following commit should be backported to Python 3.4:
https://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/c9b7272e2553

Note: Python 3.4 is no more maintained upstream.

Comment 1 Charalampos Stratakis 2016-10-14 12:41:56 UTC
In order to reproduce the crash the debug build rpm needs to be installed: python34-debug

I reproduced it in mock:
python3-debug crash.py

python3-debug: /builddir/build/BUILD/Python-3.4.3/Modules/gcmodule.c:364: update_refs: Assertion `((gc)->gc.gc_refs >> (1)) != 0' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

Comment 2 Orion Poplawski 2016-10-14 14:32:19 UTC
FYI - I've got this ready to go if it helps at all.  Seems worth it to update to 3.4.5 while we're at it.
