Re: [boost] [Python] null pointer access violation when calling Python function

I narrowed the problem a bit.

The problem arise when a boost::python::error_already_set is thrown but never caught (i.e. adding a try/catch block in main() solves the problem).

It seems to me that an uncaught exception should not cause a segfault in Boost.Python. Should it?
