Graham Dumpleton <graham.dumple...@gmail.com> added the comment: My take on this is that if wanting to interact with a thread from an atexit callback, you are supposed to call setDaemon(True) on the thread. This is to ensure that on interpreter shutdown it doesn't try and wait on the thread completing before getting to atexit callbacks.
