Is this a Power PC or specifically the CELL's Power PC core? With the
CELL, I've only had luck running with the hier_block2 code. Try running
gnuradio-examples/python/hier/usrp/usrp_siggen.py.

From what I tracked down, it seems to be a problem in how Python is
handling allocated memory. If I remember correctly, when blocks are
assigned to the flow graph, the pointers get corrupted right after the
topological sort routine finishes.
