I haven't seen it.
I updated from CVS just now, rebuilt, and ran the gdb.python tests
without any problems.

I'm still on Fedora 16.  I wouldn't expect 17 to have particular
problems like this though.

What were you doing when you got these crashes?  Is it something simple
that I could try?  What happens if you run the gdb.python tests?
