Hmm that's strange, I haven't seen that error. What version of shapely are
you using (I'm using 1.3.0). Also I'm on python 1.7.6.

Attaching the exact python script that I am running at my end.

I have also found that if I add small random numbers to each element of the
data array (gaussian random numbers of order 1e-2) then I do not get the
crash (and in fact I get the correct result), which suggests to me that
this is some instability/round-off issue.
