[pypy-dev] Crash!

[Ben.Young at risk.sungard.com]

Hi Everyone,

Current checkout, compiled pypy (windows as usual):

$ ./pypy-c.exe
debug: entry point starting
debug:  argv -> c:\Documents and 
Settings\YoungB\dist\pypy\translator\goal\pypy-c.exe
debug: importing code
debug: calling code.interact()
Python 2.4.1 (pypy 0.7.1 build) on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
(InteractiveConsole)
>>>> fe

-> Segfault

Appears to be a problem throwing exceptions.

On another point, I notice that when lists of pointers are resized lots of 
incref/decrefs happen when all that really needs to happen is a move 
operation (or even a memcpy of the whole block)? Also, could all lists of 
pointers share the same c representation, with casts from void*?

Cheers,
Ben
