Bug Description

Since updating to Ubuntu 13.10, offlineimap won't talk to the keyring anymore. It asks for credentials to be entered manually the first time (after boot) that I try to run it. Subsequently it segfaults upon run.

Finally got it to run the first time by deleting and re-adding keys to the keyring (though it still doesn't like one of them). But it still segfaults on subsequent runs, with error message:

 *** Error in `/usr/bin/python': invalid fastbin entry (free): 0x00007feaa4100600 ***
Segmentation fault

For me it's the same segfault after I re-added passwords to the keyring (I've noticed a difference in GUI that now they're marked with application 'python-keyring'). After playing with .offlineimaprc and disabling password retrieval from keyring and the enabling it again, I was able to run offlineimap w/out any segfaults (in subsequent runs after changed configuration). However, when I launched `offlineimap -u quiet`, I still got segfaults.

I wasn't using offlineimap so frequently lately. However, I did not observe this segfault bug since upgrading to Ubuntu 14.10 anymore.
