"tstate" likely stands for "thread state".

Python must somewhere store important information of the currently
running Python thread - and apparently, your use of "Py_NewInterpreter"
confuses this management.

Maybe, the "tstate" is a global variable and you cannot have multiple
interpreters at the same time. I suggest to have a look at Python's
C implementation, especially the location where the error comes from.
