Just tried it on Mavericks, Works for me:

    Python 2.7.5 (default, Aug 25 2013, 00:04:04) 
    [GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 5.0 (clang-500.0.68)] on darwin
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> a = 1000
    >>> a/1000
    1
    >>>

Yeah, I realized this after posting. Mavericks is installing its own version of python compiled with clang-5.0. My path was modified by the python installer (from mountain lion) to point under Library and was compiled using the older gcc 4.2. Looks like that program crashes for simple things (division, addition etc.).

You could swap your PATH back to the OS's python, or compile python yourself. Homebrew is great for the latter, and much more.
