The issue is still valid, but my patch from last year does not help much to solve it. You can reproduce the bug with the test.pir I attached last August, and by running the following commands: $ make pdb $ ./pdb test.pir (pdb) r The issue is that pdb does not catch an exception. Instead, the exception crashes pdb. Fixing pdb to catch exceptions cleanly would make pdb significantly more useful as a debugger, I think. Mark
