python24 2.4.5 core dumps with trivial operations

[lucadex@…]

I installed the python24 port on my Mac Book Pro Intel (OS X 10.5.4).

Then, after performed a "port_install" operation to activate this new version I run the python interpreter with these two trivial commands:

>>> import re
>>> dir(re)

and got a "Bus error".

These are the operation I performed:

[lucamac:~] luca% sudo python_select python24
Selecting version "python24" for python
[lucamac:~] luca% python
Python 2.4.5 (#1, Aug 27 2008, 10:36:10) 
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import re
>>> dir(re)
Bus error

This is the dump message I got from the System:
