New submission from STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org>:
Since Python 3.7, it's possible to load the atexit module more than once:

bpo-31901: atexit callbacks should be run at subinterpreter shutdown (#4611)
Change atexit behavior and PEP-489 multiphase init support.
Each new import executes the module which overrides PyInterpreterState.pyexitfunc with _Py_PyAtExit().
Example:
---
import sys
atexit1 = sys.modules.pop('atexit', None)
if atexit1 is None:
import atexit as atexit1
del sys.modules['atexit']
import atexit as atexit2
atexit1.register(print, "atexit1 callback")
atexit2.register(print, "atexit2 callback")
---
Output:
---
atexit2 callback
---
Either PyInterpreterState should support a list of exit functions, or atexit should raise an exception if it's loaded more than once.
call_ll_exitfuncs() calls a list of functions: _PyRuntimeState.exitfuncs. But these functions are called at the end of Py_Finalize(), whereas atexit functions are called after calling threading._shutdown() in Py_Finalize() and Py_EndInterpreter().
