When trying to load a file generated by hotshotmain.py
(attached), generates the following traceback:

Python 2.4.1 (#65, Mar 30 2005, 09:13:57) [MSC v.1310
32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for
more information.
>>> import hotshot.stats
>>> hotshot.stats.load("pyk.prof")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "C:\Python24\lib\hotshot\stats.py", line 12, in load
    return StatsLoader(filename).load()
  File "C:\Python24\lib\hotshot\stats.py", line 51, in load
    assert not self._stack
AssertionError

This happened with both python 2.4.1 and with python
2.4.2 rc 1 on windows (just downloaded).

Seems similar to bug [ 900092 ] hotshot.stats.load
(link:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=900092&group_id=5470
)
but according to that, bug has been closed, and patch
has been applied to python 2.4.2. not sure if that
applies also to 2.4.2 rc1

Attaching the output file that caused it.

It was indeed fixed with 2.4.2, but this does not correct the invalid
statistics generated with 2.4.1.
Running hotshotmain.py with a newer version should generate a correct file.

Hotshot is unmaintained and has been removed from py3k.
