recent issues (hangs) with python 2.7

[Riccardo Mottola]

Hi all!

recently at my last updates I have seen flowing in a new version of python 2.7

I use it to build ArcticFox (or TenFourFox) on 10.7, I noticed that now it often hangs… my whole computer becomes not responsive and I can with difficuty kill the python process ith ctrl-c or in the system monitor.

I launch the build and it hangs - sometimes with high CPU load, sometimes not even that, but you can barely click around.
If I kill and relaunch… it may work - if it works the build process end fine.. the same thing.

When I qui it hangs with this:

Process Process-1:
Traceback (most recent call last):

Any clues?
