Hi-

This crash happened when going to http://host/mailman/admindb.  I have
not been able to reproduce it since then.  The error log is attached. 
The system is running Slackware 3.5, with Python 1.5.1.  Any suggestions
or patches?

Also, is there a way that I can turn off the extraneous debugging
information sent to the WWW client, and have it just be put in the log? 
The fact that it dumps so much information about the system could be
seen as a security risk.

Thanks.
