From: Mark Asbach <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
when using py-xml together with py-wxpython, I get a reproductible
bus error whenever I try to use sax or minidom (both relying on
expat). Invoking the parsers crashes the application with a bus
error. The workaround I found is to import xml.parsers.pyexpat before
importing wx - but this is a workaround, not a bug fix.

Can someone comment on this? What could I do to narrow the bug?
Hi Mark,
* This problem may be caused by wxPython being built/linking against
older versions of libexpat than pyexpat is.
* A solution may be to do a clean build and install of both wxPython
and pyexpat. (libxml has been recently upgraded in version from
2.6.28_0->2.6.28_1, perhaps causing your incompatible builds?)
* This bug is documented here:

* It notes that the problem is caused by version mismatches. A
solution that avoids the problem has been applied in 2.5, but not in 2,4
* Here are a couple of other references to the problem (without
solutions)
