Antoine Pitrou added the comment: (Actually, it would almost be possible to combine weakrefs and thread locals to ensure that join() only returns when the thread state is cleared. However, the thread state is cleared before it is untied from the interpreter, and there would still be a small window for a race condition if some destructor called by clearing the thread state released the GIL.)
