Subject: Use of Python Imaging Library causes Python to crash at exit
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Python can crash on exit with "Aborted (core dumped)" if I do "from PIL 
import Image". The crash used to happen always with just that line. 
After I reinstalled Cygwin, the crashes went away, but now they're back, 
requiring a bit more code:
from ctypes import cdll, c_char_p, c_void_p, c_int, c_uint, c_byte
from PIL import Image

I am using cygwin-1.7.33-1, python-2.7.8-1, libffi6-3.0.13-1 and 
python-imaging-2.6.1-1.

This crash is similar to: https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-11/msg00505.html

Whenever I looked at these crashes in gdb, the abort() was called in at 
"gcc_assert (ob);" just before the return from 
__deregister_frame_info_bases(). That was called from 
__gcc_deregister_frame() in cygffi-6.dll. In other words, it happened 
while unloading the ffi library. It seems all Python code gets to run 
before the crash, including destructors, so this is not a serious 
problem. Here is a backtrace:
