Robert Collins <robe...@robertcollins.net> added the comment: Normally I advocate very strongly for Python implementation of C accelerated modules, but when the two implementations are not equivalent, having a simpler Python one around does not help anyone (not users, other language implementors etc). True reentrancy is possible but quite hard to achieve.
So, FWIW, +1 on just having a C implementation. The dedicated signal thread sounds useful too - it would ease the issues for folk using other parts of the stdlib, and would in principle permit a pure-python RLock to hang around. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13697> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
