Look at the value of 'type' as it is passed to a nested function:

#0  assign_version_tag (type=0x90007faf3e37ba40) at
                             ~~~~~~
/usr/src/debug/Python-2.7/Objects/typeobject.c:152
        i = <value optimized out>
        n = <value optimized out>
        bases = <value optimized out>
        __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ = "assign_version_tag"
#1  0x00000039faea48c3 in _PyType_Lookup (type=0xb0007faf3e37ba40, 
                                               ~~~~~~
name='get_interface') at /usr/src/debug/Python-2.7/Objects/typeobject.c:2494
        i = <value optimized out>
        n = 3
        mro = (<type at remote 0x7faf3e37ba40>, <type at remote 0x7faf3e37b3c0>, <type at remote 0x39fb1a2a00>)
        res = <value optimized out>
        base = <value optimized out>
        dict = <value optimized out>
        h = <value optimized out>
        __PRETTY_FUNCTION__ = "_PyType_Lookup"

The difference between the two addresses is a single binary digit (0x9 == 1001b, 0xb = 1011b).  Looks very much like a result of faulty memory...
