* group the (stateful) runtime globals into various topical structs
* consolidate the topical structs under a single top-level _PyRuntimeState struct
* add a check-c-globals.py script that helps identify runtime globals
Other globals are excluded (see globals.txt and check-c-globals.py).
* bpo-6532: Make the thread id an unsigned integer.
From C API side the type of results of PyThread_start_new_thread() and
PyThread_get_thread_ident(), the id parameter of
PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc(), and the thread_id field of PyThreadState
changed from "long" to "unsigned long".
* Restore a check in thread_get_ident().
Add also a new _PyTime_AsMicroseconds() function.
threading.TIMEOUT_MAX is now be smaller: only 292 years instead of 292,271
years on 64-bit system for example. Sorry, your threads will hang a *little
bit* shorter. Call me if you want to ensure that your locks wait longer, I can
share some tricks with you.
threading.Lock.acquire(), threading.RLock.acquire() and socket operations now
use a monotonic clock, instead of the system clock, when a timeout is used.
instead of creating temporary Unicode string objects
Add also more identifiers in pythonrun.c to avoid temporary Unicode string
objets for the interactive interpreter.
Py_DECREF(self) if PyThread_allocate_lock() failed instead of calling directly
type->tp_free(self), to keep the chained list of objects consistent when Python
is compiled in debug mode
fails, don't consume the row (restore it) and fail immediatly (don't call
pysqlite_step())
thread implementation.
Skip test_lock_acquire_interruption() and test_rlock_acquire_interruption() of
test_threadsignals if a thread lock is implemented using a POSIX mutex and a
POSIX condition variable. A POSIX condition variable cannot be interrupted by a
signal (e.g. on Linux, the futex system call is restarted).

Issue #3757: thread-local objects now support cyclic garbage collection.
Thread-local objects involved in reference cycles will be deallocated
timely by the cyclic GC, even if the underlying thread is still running.
........
module now takes an optional timeout argument in seconds. Timeout support
relies on the system threading library, so as to avoid a semi-busy wait
loop.

Issue #7222: Make thread "reaping" more reliable so that reference
leak-chasing test runs give sensible results. The previous method of
reaping threads could return successfully while some Thread objects were
still referenced. This also introduces a new private function:
:func:hread._count().

Otherwise dir(_sre.SRE_Match) returns an empty list.

#Issue3088 in-progress: Race condition with instances of classes derived from threading.local:
When a thread touches such an object for the first time, a new thread-local __dict__ is created,
and the __init__ method is run.
But a thread switch can occur here; if the other thread touches the same object, it installs another
__dict__; when the first thread resumes, it updates the dictionary of the second...
This is the deep cause of the failures in test_multiprocessing involving "managers" objects.
Also a 2.5 backport candidate.
