seg. fault with Py_BuildValue?

[Christian Meesters]

Hi

I'm having trouble with Py_BuildValue. I was able to pinpoint the following
statement as the one causing a seg. fault with my script:

static PyObject * funcname(PyObject *self, PyObject *args) {
...
  return Py_BuildValue("(OO)", x, y);
}
where x & y are both of type PyObject.

Any suggestions here? Do I need to handle the output of Py_BuildValue
somehow before returning? How? Need to decref x & y before returning?

TIA
Christian
