[Bf-python] Important: Segfaults on Windows >= 98

[Greg McBride]

Forgot part of it. The print lamp crashed on WinXP as did the Camera (before
the CVS update).

> Did a CVS update, and recompile. The print works for the Camera.

> Using a clean Global Dictionary.
> Run Python script "Text" ...
> [[Camera "Camera"]]
> [Camera "Camera"]
