2023.25.02 10:16:01 MYSTIC 001 An error has occured: EAccessViolation Access violation

I wasn't sure whether to add this report to others experiencing the same
error.  This script used to run okay. I cannot pin the onset of the problem down to a particular Mystic or Python version.  Unfortunately this runs before the main menu prompt and results in breaking the internet connection with the user entirely, so I have it disabled for now.

This is where it stands today:

Environment:

[*] Python 2.7.18
[*] Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS (jammy) x86_64
[*] Mystic BBS v1.12 A47

These three lines plus the bangpath are enough to cause the error.  The issue appears to be with the 'import random':

#!/usr/local/bin/python

import mystic_bbs as bbs
import sys
import random

I am unsure how to troubleshoot this further, but I am curious if the simple 'import random' causes similar issues for other people, and on which versions of Python.
