The Python interpreter needs to keep some bookkeeping information separate per
thread --- for this it uses a data structure called :ctype:`PyThreadState`.
There's one global variable, however: the pointer to the current

abstraction doesn't support this yet. Therefore, the current thread state must
be manipulated explicitly.
