Does the problem occur with Python 3.x?  At this date, Python 2.7 is
only supported by your vendor if you are using an enterprise Linux
distribution.

I don't think there is a way to recover from that error in your python
script.  It could be a bug in the Python interpreter (which will never
be fixed in 2.7), or it could be a bug in a library somewhere. The
latter is most likely.  There's nothing you can do about it from a
Python script to recover.
