When using mod_wsgi there is no problem with C extension modules which use simplified GIL API provided that one configures mod_wsgi to delegate that specific application to run in the context of the first interpreter instance created by Python. In theory the same should be the case for mod_python but there is currently a bug in the way that mod_python works such that some C extension modules using simplified API for the GIL still don't work even when made to run in first interpreter.
