[issue14976] queue.Queue() is not reentrant, so signals and GC can cause deadlocks

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

Also, to elaborate a bit, I don't think we should aim to make Queue fully reentrant, as that would be extremely involved.  I think we can settle on the simpler goal of making put() reentrant for unbounded LIFO and FIFO queues, which is what most people care about (and which is incidentally what the posted patch claims to do).
