+Subject: [PATCH] Python: if message is NULL, use Py_None instead
+
+If the error message is malformed / invalid UTF-8, and the Python 3
+binding is being used, then message may be NULL. This will cause the
+Python interpreter to crash (Segmentation fault) trying to unpack the
+argument list into local variables.
+
+This uses Py_None for message if message is NULL, so that the
+interpreter does not crash.
