[Pythonmac-SIG] Help: compiling a module with MPW

Thanks to the excellent documentation from Mr. Webster on using MPW, I 
was able to compile and use a number of fairly complicated python modules 
with no trouble.

However, I am getting a DebugStr: "Attempt to free unallocated or corrupt 
block @ xxxx".  If I ignore this, things seem to work fine.

Where is this error coming from?  I have no experience with MPW or python 
modules, but this message seems to be merely informative.  I searched 
through the python sources and module sources and couldn't find it 
anywhere, and have no idea where it's coming from.  Needless to say it's 
annoying to be dropping into MacsBug all the time.  I'm hoping it's a 
built-in assert in MPW's libraries that can be turned off somehow...?
