Bug Description

Some files cause elementtidy so crash the Python interpreter. This has been tested on 2 different 64-bit machines running Ubuntu 11.10 (mine and the attached test was also run by dtmbmw325i in #ubuntu on freenode).

I have attached a minimal example file and script which demonstrates the problem.

In an effort to debug this I downloaded the sources, patched, recompiled and installed... The problem then went away!

I guess that this would suggest an old problem in a version of gcc from February 2005; suggest recompiling and repackaging to fix.
