Well, you can do "gdb  python xxx.py", then type "run" to start it.  
When it hangs, you press Ctrl-C to break into the debugger. "bt" gets a 
stack trace of the current thread.  You may need a stack trace of all 
threads, which is likely to be verbose: "thread apply all bt".  Email me 
a copy if you want some interpretation.
