R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

I can confirm that the patch fixes the recursion problem if threading._VERBOSE 
is set to true, but the test Antoine mentioned hangs when the test suite is run.

_VERBOSE is an internal, undocumented facility, so perhaps the priority on this 
isn't really "high".

On the other hand, Antoine's patch takes things from non-functional to at least 
partially functional, so perhaps it is worth applying as is, pending someone 
figuring out where the test hang is coming from.

I looked in to this briefly, but I have no clue how to trigger this in a unit 
test, since it seems to happen when regrtest imports logging which imports 
threading, and appears to my threading-ignorant eyes to be tied to conditions 
that only exist at initial module import.
