  Issue #1402: PyInterpreterState_Clear() may still invoke user code
  (in deallocation of running threads, for example), so the PyGILState_Release()
  function must still be functional.
  On the other hand, _PyGILState_Fini() only frees memory, and can be called later.

  Backport candidate, but only after some experts comment on it.
