system-config-httpd-1.4.6-1.fc12.noarch appears to be badly borked:

Has anyone else noticed this and BZ'd it?

I don't see a newer version in fedora-testing and development has the
same version number.

From looking at system-config-httpd, it appears to be a pure Python package.
I am unable to find any compiled extensions that this package loads.

As such, any resulting segfault in Python must therefore be a Python bug. No pure Python package should be responsible for segfaults in the python interpreter itself.

I've got an utterly useless abrt report filed against my pure python package. By "utterly useless" I mean only the segfault, with no backtrace of any kind whatsoever. I'm tempted to reassign it to python itself.
