I'm trying to get some sensible information but have real problems with debugging, as I'm seeing line number information that is just plain wrong, though compiling with debugging on and everything, the likes of:

(gdb) info source
Current source file is src/lxml/etree.c
Compilation directory is /home/lb54320/pydev/LXML/lxml/
Located in /home/lb54320/pydev/LXML/lxml/src/lxml/etree.c
Contains 90795 lines.
Source language is c.
Compiled with stabs debugging format.
(gdb) b etree.c:70850
No line 70850 in file "src/lxml/etree.c".
(gdb)

No idea what I'm doing wrong here, at the moment.

So the info on the crash does not get much better than that backtrace at the moment:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0xff0b3218 in strlen () from /usr/lib/libc.so.1
(gdb) bt

What I can see, though, is that using the same schematron schema with xmllint does not crash:
0 $ cat invalid_empty.xst
<schema xmlns="http://purl.oclc.org/dsdl/schematron" />

0 $ python2.4 -i -c 'from lxml import etree; print etree.LIBXML_VERSION; schema = etree.Schematron(etree.parse("invalid_empty.xst"))'
(2, 6, 30)
Segmentation Fault (core dumped)

whereas

$ /apps/pydev/bin/xmllint --schematron invalid_empty.xst foo.xml --version
/apps/pydev/bin/xmllint: using libxml version 20630
