Two threads should not be running through the Python VM concurrently
in the same process. The GIL has to be held *any* time you use the
Python API. When you want to release the GIL (to process something in
C), use PY_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS and PY_END_ALLOW_THREADS around the
places where threads can run.
