Fixed one crash e2672a433b

However this script has an error (which can still crash Blender).

Its holding references to objects in bpy module, which are later deleted.

Attached log which may help to debug the issue.

Closing the report since the second issue needs to be fixed in the script.

should a bug in a script be able to crash Blender?

should a bug in a script be able to crash Blender?

@BrentBaccala in principle scripts should never crash blender, and where possible we try to enforce this.

But with the current system ensuring valid data on every access is possible but slow, I added the build option WITH_PYTHON_SAFETY a while ago, which prevents crashes in many cases but it gives approx 2x slowdown last I checked.
