Bug description:
python-pygtk-2.16.0 causes python-2.7 to segfault if warning settings are changed from default to "error".
Because PyGTK-2.10+ throws only warnings applications which use PyGTK change warning settings to catch an exception while importing gtk module and X display is not available.

[kiesiu at beth ~]$ python -c "import warnings; warnings.filterwarnings('error', module='gtk'); import gtk"
python: Objects/dictobject.c:759: PyDict_SetItem: Assertion `value' failed.
Aborted

[kiesiu at beth ~]$ rpm -q python-pygtk-gtk
