New submission from appidman:

I use paramiko to create SSH sessions to Linux machines, which works great 95% 
of the time. But sometimes, the Python process which creates the SSH session 
hangs forever in wait() of threading.py (see attachment 'gdb.txt' for full 
output).

{code}
(gdb) py-list
 239            waiter.acquire()
 240            self.__waiters.append(waiter)
 241            saved_state = self._release_save()
 242            try:    # restore state no matter what (e.g., 
KeyboardInterrupt) 
 243                if timeout is None:
>244                    waiter.acquire()
 245                    if __debug__:
 246                        self._note("%s.wait(): got it", self)
 247                else:
 248                    # Balancing act:  We can't afford a pure busy loop, so 
we
 249                    # have to sleep; but if we sleep the whole timeout time,


(gdb) py-bt
