In fact you did. Sorry for overlooking this. (I still find db.messages()
vs thread.get_messages() confusing.)
The way memory handling works, one could even expect a more specific
notmuch2.ObjectDestroyedError.
As for the SIGABRT: I guess this is what "python -X faulthandler" is
for, especially in the context of C extension modules:
LANG=C python -X faulthandler t.py
Fatal Python error: Aborted
Current thread 0x00007f5bf667e740 (most recent call first):
File "/usr/lib64/python3.10/site-packages/notmuch2/_message.py", line
131 in path
File "/tmp/t.py", line 5 in <module>
Extension modules: _cffi_backend (total: 1)
Abgebrochen (Speicherabzug geschrieben)
(Yes, it disrespects LANG)
Line 131 is
ret = capi.lib.notmuch_message_get_filename(self._msg_p)
in the path method, and since _msg_p is a base.MemoryPointer() I would
have hoped (now) to get a notmuch2.ObjectDestroyedError. Maybe _msg_p is
destroyed but the Message object is not? Fishing in the dark here ...

P.S.: Sorry for the repeated message. I had problems with list bounces
in the past, then remembered the original alias wrong, then replied to
the reply to the wrong (only off-list-delivered) post. g...@grubix.eu is
the one subscribed to the list. I'll remember now.
