If you make _any_ calls to Twisted code, put them in a 
reactor.callFromThread(func). It runs the function in the main thread.

But you shouldn't suspect the request object, because plain Python code 
won't make python simply die without error. Third party C code is almost 
always the culprit in stuff like that.
