Robert, what Bogdan says is essentially correct. The OpenSIPS itself is not using any threads AFAIK, therefore python module code is kept as simple as possible. Now back to the original question: we use quite a lot of python code in our routing and some of the python modules that are running are actually creating threads on their own and it appears to be pretty stable. What OS / python version are you using? What could be different in our case is that we link our OpenSIPS binary with pthreads always (which may or may not be the case on your build), so there might be some vital threads runtime infrastructure that is not getting initialized in your case.
