For Python 2.2.2 on Linux Debian i386, I get a segmentation fault.

For Python 2.3b1, I get an output of '10', so I'm guessing it was a bug
that got fixed in 2.3.

I don't know if there will be a Python 2.2.3 (I'd personally like to see
one, for fixing bugs like this one), but if there is a prerelease for
another in the Python 2.2 line, you should test for this bug against it.
