Christian Heimes added the comment:

I was talking about memory address reuse, too. After all the code doesn't 
access data at the pointer's address but rather uses the address as an 
identifier.

I agree that the code should not behave erroneous under current circumstances. 
The GIL ensures serialization and provides a memory barrier. But it's hard to 
tell what might happen in the future and in embedded applications.

It smells fishy. :)
