Hi!
Thanks for the response!
I'll fill in the details shortly. I wanted to add to the bug, that the functions being called repeatedly were `python-shell-send-string` and `python-shell-send-file`.
They call one another and create more and more temporary files before I get the recursion error.
As a side note, python.el really rocks. Thanks so much for the amazing work.

Hi,
Can you try 'M-x toggle-debug-on-error', or maybe tracing some
functions, to discover what is being called repeatedly?
Also, what happens if you (setq python-eldoc-get-doc nil) in the .py
file's buffer?
I'll try this asap. I thought it was eldoc, but then tried turning off 'eldoc-mode' off and I still had the same problem with the infinite recursion (and I think I still saw the weird PYDOC strings, but not sure).
But I will try this today.
Some more macos-related things that would be helpful to know:
* On a freshly started python-shell, is are the functions
__PYTHON_EL_eval and __PYTHON_EL_eval_file defined?
I just checked, and they both are.
<function __main__.__PYTHON_EL_eval(source, filename)>
<function __main__.__PYTHON_EL_eval_file(filename, tempname, delete)>
* If you do M-x python-shell-send-string RET x="aaa...aaa" or something
like that, can you evaluate Python statements that are, say, 900 and
1100 characters long?
Will try this immediately
