Thanks for the report. However, I can't see anything related to lxml from your
stack traces, so before I try to reproduce this, would you mind trying it with
the latest trunk version of lxml? You didn't state which version you were
using, so I assume it was a release version.

Could you send me the valgrind log? bzip2 is fine.

Thanks,
