I have a PDF document that seems to get stuck in an infinite loop in the "while True" clause of generic.NameObject.

I added the empty string "" to the tuple of NameObject.delimiterCharacters to fix this issue. Don't know if it's the right solution, but it seems to break the infinite loop perfectly.

I can confirm this issue, and that the delimiter fix mentioned here works around the issue while passing my application tests. The greater issue is the use of while True: ... blocks throughout the code, instead of breaking after some limit with a raised exception.
