Description xqt 2014-02-27 13:39:50 UTC 
In some circumstances pywikibot.replaceExcept() may hang or have an infinite loop. Neigher keyboard interrupt nor any other event works anymore an the workstation must be restarted. Maybe this is caused by a malformed undetected regex. On the otherhand any interrupt should be possible to kill the task.

I found this on compat, maybe it is also the same problem in core.
