win32all140 - axscript InterruptScriptThread interrupts the wrong thread

[Alan Klietz]

The InterruptScriptThread callback for IActiveScriptSite, implemented in
PyGActiveScript.cpp, calls PyErr_SetInterrupt().  I wrote an web server in
Python that parses ASP files, however when a python ASP script was
interrupted it would blow away the main thread instead of the script thread.
The problem is that PyErr_SetInterrupt() always reflects the interrupt back
to the main thread.  Until this is fixed in the base Python distribution, it
is better to simply punt.
