New submission from Amaury Forgeot d'Arc:
>>> import math, sys
>>> math.factorial(sys.maxsize - 1)
(Hit Ctrl-C)
Segmentation fault
The cause is probably in mathmodule.c::factorial_odd_part():
error:
Py_DECREF(outer);
done:
Py_DECREF(inner);
return outer;
In case of error, the function returns a released reference instead of NULL.
