The test suite crashs randomly with issue9756.patch on my Ubuntu 11.04 (AMD64 
with 4 cores, 4 GB of memory, Linux 2.6.38). I use "./python -bb 
Lib/test/regrtest.py -r" to reproduce the crash.

... I tried without the patch, and test_descr does crash quickly in 
test_wrapper_segfault(). It crashs in _PyObject_GC_New(), in a callback used to 
release the memory. Sometimes it fails on update_refs(), sometimes in 
_PyObject_DebugFree(), sometimes in wrapper_dealloc()->_Py_ForgetReference, 
etc. I use "./python Lib/test/regrtest.py -F -v test_descr" to reproduce the 
crash (sometimes it takes more than one run to crash).

It's strange because I'm unable to reproduce the bug on a very similar setup 
(Debian Sid, AMD64 with 2 cores, 2 GB of memory, Linux 2.6.38).

Should I run a memcheck on the Ubuntu host? Or is anyone able to reproduce the 
bug?
