Hello,

In PyPy's facilities for writing a CPython extension, would it be conceivable 
to have an option to release the CPython GIL when the extension is entered and 
grab it back upon exit?

That would enable multiprocessing and could be extremely useful when the 
programmer knows he's not going to modifying shared items during the execution 
of the extension.

Thanks,
Gary
