Without a clear way "how to reproduce" it, they can't help here (that
was the answer in some other bugs of pychess). The python-visual
authors even said, that they never saw a backtrace and can't help at

So some upstream author would help, but what in the cases, they
don't/can't?
Ignoring the bugs till the release is EOL is not really an option...
