Can a simple a==b 'hang' in and endless loop?

In the process of learning about some deeper details of Python I am
curious if it is possible to write a 'prefix' code assigning to a and b
something special, so, that Python gets trapped in an endless loop in a
line with:
if a==b: print 'OK'
I mean, it would be of much help to me on my way to understanding Python
to know how such prefix code leading to an endless loop can look like
and if it is eventually not possible to write such code, to know why it
is not possible?
My own first rough idea was to create generators which never end and use
them in the '==' comparison, but I have not well understood how to write
and use generators yet, so I expect from studying this special case to
come to some enlightenment.
