Neil Schemenauer (https://bitbucket.org/nascheme/) has found and debugged a segfault in the accelerator (see https://bitbucket.org/rptlab/reportlab/issues/78/use-after-free-bug-in-_rl_accel-unicode2t1). I have applied Neil's patch and tested. It doesn't seem to cause any untoward effects, but since I was not seeing the problem before on my main development platform (win32/win64) I cannot tell if it actually does the job. I have released the patched version as 3.3.7 3a78e2dd84502ae967ba3bf9aeb08f0b59edc032 if nobody complains loudly in the next few days I will push this to pypi sometime next week. -- Robin Becker
