Vladimir Ushakov added the comment:

I know how to avoid the problem in my case, the bug does not really affect me. 
I posted it because I thought that the possibility to crash the interpreter is 
something to be avoided at all costs.

I've found a few examples of handling non-restartable signals with longjmps, 
but not that familiar with the codebase to estimate how reliably it can be done 
on all supported platforms. I don't really know how this code would behave, 
say, on Windows.

I'm gonna do some research on the topic when I have a little more time.
