Some of your submission appears to have gotten lost (I saw it via email).
Below is the patch you proposed. I haven't experienced this crash on my 
machines, but the solution seems fine to me.


# I sometimes experienced crash of test_changing_value(test_winreg)
# on release27-maint. It happens when 2 threads calls PyEnumValue and
# PySetValue simultaneously. And I could stop it by following patch.
# I'll attach the stack trace of crash.
