Here is the test case that I originally posted in #518269.  It is a
PyGTK app with a vte Terminal.  It uses forkpty() to create a child
process inside the terminal.  That child process dies with this
assertion error when it reaches the raw_input() statement.  (Actually,
it seems to need some action, a mouse movement or keypress, before the
error is thrown.)  The parent process survives.

This error occurs in an up-to-date Karmic install, but not on Jaunty.
Perhaps someone can try it on Lucid?
