Title:
  Python Segfault on os.exec

Status in Python:
  Invalid
Status in python2.6 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: python

  Ubuntu Karmic, latest python from aptitude (2.6.2-0ubuntu1).

  Using the exec command causes segfaults in python. For example:

  Python 2.6.2+ (release26-maint, Jul 24 2009, 16:16:12)
  [GCC 4.4.1] on linux2
  Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
  >>> import os
  >>> os.execlp('true')
  Segmentation fault
  ~>

  Expected behavior (from another Linux system):
  Python 2.6 (r26:66714, Feb  3 2009, 20:49:49)
  [GCC 4.3.2 [gcc-4_3-branch revision 141291]] on linux2
  Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
  >>> import os
  >>> os.execlp('true')
  ~>

  
  This has been confirmed on 3 different computers running karmic.
