This was probably a similar issue to 1365, not sure of the severity 
but from our work, if the interactive interp isn't functional, 
debuggers (like pydev) seem to have issues. Debugging is cricial in my 
mind ^_^

Using 2.5.1rc1, copy (or type) the following code on windows 32 using 
jre 1.6.0_14 into the interactive interp:

for i in range(ITER):
   chain = Chain(40)
   chain.kill(3)
   end = time.time()

What i get is a never ending console that won't let me end the for 
loop.

Or effectively the output (note the extra ...'s are me hitting return 
repeatedly hoping for the for loop interactivity to eventually end 
being defined):
>>> for i in range(ITER):
...    chain = Chain(40)
...    chain.kill(3)
... end = time.time()
...
...
...
