CONTEST: PyWin crashes with pure Python code!

[Gaetan Corneau]

Bill,

I'm running service pack 5, and I have VC++ 6.0 installed. I'm supposed to
have the latest version, but I don't know exactly which version it is: I
received this PC a week ago and the IT guys installed VC++ from the MSDN CD
set. Do you know how to check exactly what version (with patches) I'm using?
I checked the msdev.exe file and the version number is 6.00.8168.2 f hat
means anything to you.

This problem is very strange. I'll try to find time to trace the code.

I am on a PIII 450 with 128 ram. and am unable to reproduce a crash, even
with greatly increasing
the size of Christian's file.

I am starting to suspect some sort of dll mismatch.
Can you tell me:
a. What service pack you are running.
b. Whether you have VC++ installed.
and if so, do you have any of the service updates installed?
