Weird.  On my Opteron it says "fired = True"

What version of Python are you using?
I haven't done any testing with 2.5 yet.

This particular test code exercises SWIG "directors" but also
exercises a bit of a kludge the acquires and releases the Python
"Global Interpreter Lock".  That the lock part must be working OK,
otherwise you'd see SIGSEGV.

Perhaps there is some kind of stale install problem?
Can you try removing all of the gnuradio related stuff under 
/usr/local/lib{,64}/python<ver>/site-packages as well as the 
/usr/local/lib64/libgnuradio*, then make again?
