If I apply this patch apache (with mod_python and python 2.4.2) is
crashing randomly (not only at shutdown/restart).

Subject: [PATCH] Fix locking-related segfaults and deadlocks in the SWIG
Python bindings
This patch should fix the segfaults reported by Marc Haesen and Max
Bowsher when using the Python bindings with ViewCVS in mod_python
mode. I haven't tested this patch with mod_python yet, so please let
me know if it helps.
If you are using Python 2.3, this patch additionally solves a
theoretical deadlock bug in the Python bindings where the bindings
could hang if the same thread tried to acquire the global interpreter
lock recursively.
For more information on the Python threading APIs, see:
http://www.etsimo.uniovi.es/python/dev/doc/devel/api/threads.html
