Yes i do, and i also remember Robin pointing out that those who were
experiencing segfaults were experiencing them because they did not run
wxPython correctly.But lets just ignore facts for a moment, you do
this all the time. But just to make a point i will entertain you.

Let's imagine that the segfaults are in fact only a wxPython problem.
Now imagine you are buying a car and you have two choices. You can
choose an old Yugo with 300,000 miles and a bad paint job or you can
choose a fancy sports car fresh off the assembly line that contains
the most modern technology. Both the new sports car and the old and
dumpy Yugo have brand new tires.  You're argument about segfauts would
be akin to making the decision solely based on the tires. Completely
moronic.
