histoboard.py inexplicably stopped working on all machines, all previous data sets

[firasm]

Here are the instructions for creating histoboards:

5. Create a config files that determines what the histoboard will look for. 
An example is (HerP2.config for HerP2):

[Defaults]
ExperimentName=HerP2
factor=5000
output=/tmp/hboards

[Markers]
Herceptin=fcJPGs redHerceptin
Irinotecan=fcJPGs greenIrino
HPG=fcJPGs magentaHPG

6. Run Stefan's magical histoboard function in the terminal:

cd /Users/fmoosvi/sarpy/python/sarpy/io
./histoBoard.py -c /Users/fmoosvi/hdata/HerP2/HerP2.config

When I run this command again, I now get this error:

Fatal Python error: PyThreadState_Get: no current thread
Abort trap: 6

okayyy... not quite fixed yet.

It's only fixed for the code that's run from inside a terminal, not from main.
