It smells like a reference count bug in the ODBC module.  What win32all 
version are you using?  I have no database to test against, but if you 
can reduce it down to the absolute minimum code needed to crash, I may 
still be able to find it.

If you have an old win32all or ActivePython, please check the date - a 
quick check of the log for the ODBC module shows the following checkin:

revision 1.5

Patches from Alex Martelli that solves some crashes under error conditions.

A later ODBC module may fix your problem.
