SystemError: NULL object passed to Py_BuildValue

[Malac]

I'm fairly new to Python and I'm working on the USP project "places" plugin.
I'm trying to get the gnomevfs unmount() to work but I keep getting the following error:

SystemError: NULL object passed to Py_BuildValueThe code is this:

I'm connecting the function with this:
self.mTree.get_widget( "UnmountItem" ).connect( "activate", self.UnmountChosen, w, self.mTree)And the Function is this:
def UnmountChosen(self, menuitem, button, callingmenu):
for volume in gnomevfs.VolumeMonitor().get_mounted_volumes():
if string.replace(string.join(volume.get_activation_u ri().split( "//" )[1].split( "%20" ) ),"%23","#") == self.Exec[1]:
try:
volume.unmount( self.UnmountEjectCallback )
except:
print "Unable to Unmount"

def UnmountEjectCallback(self, *args, **kargs):
# Do Nothing except return as re-drawing is handled with VolumeMonitor calls
returnThe unmount is working, I just keep getting the error and I've no idea why or how to rectify it.
Any help greatly appreciated.
