Do you know what assertion is failing in the remove function and can
you fix it?

The most likely thing is that you have made a mistake in your
reference counting, perhaps decrementing a reference where you
shouldn't have, or creating a python object and failing to incref it.
Have you written a python extension module?  If so did you do it by
hand or are you using one of the standard wrapper generators like SWIG
or pyrex?  If the latter, it could be a bug in the wrapper generator.
If not, it might help to post some of your code which acts on the
PyObjects.
