[issue13951] Document that Seg Fault in .so called by ctypes causes the interpreter to Seg Fault

2012-12-30 Thread Georg Brandl 

Georg Brandl added the comment:

The reference to faulthandler is a good addition.  The other added sentence 
reads repetitive and can be left out.  Proposal:

There are, however, enough ways to crash Python with :mod:`ctypes`, so you 
should be careful anyway.  The :mod:`faulthandler` module can be helpful in 
debugging crashes, e.g. from segmentation faults produced by erroneous C 
library calls.

Meador Inge added the comment:

Georg's proposal seems reasonable to me sans one very minor nit.  I think the 
e.g. bit is better off parenthesized:

 There are, however, enough ways to crash Python with :mod:`ctypes`, so you
-should be careful anyway.
+should be careful anyway.  The :mod:`faulthandler` module can be helpful in
+debugging crashes (e.g. from segmentation faults produced by erroneous C
+library calls).

If there are no objections, then I will go ahead and commit this version.
