Core and builtins ----------------- +- The internal portable implementation of thread-local storage (TLS), used + by the ``PyGILState_Ensure()``/``PyGILState_Release()`` API, was not + thread-correct. This could lead to a variety of problems, up to and + including segfaults. See bug 1041645 for an example. + - Added a command line option, -m module, which searches sys.path for the module and then runs it. (Contributed by Nick Coghlan.) |
