[linux-external-python-2.6] python crashed on 4th run, if "ctypes" is used - s7mx1 - 2009-11-20
python 2.6 may cause xbmc to crash on Py_Finalize() on 4th cycle if "ctypes" is used. To see the problem you can try to add "import uuid" into your script/plugin and run it more than 4 times.
The patch is based on python bug issue 6869
