[Stefano Rivera]

I got this, building 4.3.2 in debian sid this evening.

In my slightly inebriated state right now, I can't see what's wrong, or if this is an LXML bug. So, I'll file it, and hope somene else gets ot the bottom of it :)

[Leonard Richardson (leonardr)]

This is the same as bug 1175159. My guess is it's a platform-specific bug in lxml. I've never been able to duplicate it. I'd appreciate it if you could do some more digging into the issue.

[IAN DELANEY (johneed)]

well I'm far from inebriated and I got it too.

[IAN DELANEY (johneed)]

the 1 error was with lxml-3.2.1. Look what we get with 3.2.4.

Had a dig around

First appeared here in beautifulsoup r301.1.3.

It goes away if I use the LXML in debian/unstable or Ubuntu/trusty, which was cythonned with cython 0.20b1. If I try and built it myself, with cython 0.19.2+git5-g0c6fdf0-1, it crops up again.

[Leonard Richardson (leonardr)]

Closing this because it really looks like an lxml problem and the last activity here was over a year ago. If you keep having this problem I'd bring it to the attention of the lxml developer.
