[issue40413] Py_RunMain() crashes on subsequence call

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org> added the comment:

I never tried, but I expect that the following pattern is fine:

for (i=0; i<5; i++) {
    Py_Initialize(); Py_RunMain()
}

Maybe Py_RunMain() must fail with a fatal error if it's called when Python is not initialized.

Since Py_RunMain() finalizes Python, you cannot call it multiple times without calling Py_Initialize() between calls.
