Maybe assign an object to sys.stdout that has write etc methods that check
what thread is calling and use self.response things that you assign to
a property of that sys.stdout object instead of directly to sys.stdout.
I.e., something like
sys.stdout = my_stdout_dispatcher
...
# property out_channels stores self.response with thread id:
sys.stdout.out_channels = self.response(which is a file like object)
...
# print => sys.stdout.write => my_stdout_dispatcher.write('from some
thread')
# which atomically looks up right self.response
print 'from some thread'
You may need some lock stuff to do this properly
(to make self.response lookup info access effectively atomic),
but that's a general idea. I don't know what other thread interaction issues
you may have with the state of possibly mutable data being printed.
This is just an idea for an approach. I may not be understanding your problem
at all ;-)
