Neil Schemenauer (https://bitbucket.org/nascheme/) has found and debugged a
segfault in the accelerator (see
https://bitbucket.org/rptlab/reportlab/issues/78/use-after-free-bug-in-_rl_accel-unicode2t1).
I have applied Neil's patch and tested. It doesn't seem to cause any untoward
effects, but since I was not seeing the problem before on my main development
platform (win32/win64) I cannot tell if it actually does the job.
I have released the patched version as 3.3.7
3a78e2dd84502ae967ba3bf9aeb08f0b59edc032
if nobody complains loudly in the next few days I will push this to pypi
sometime next week.
