The intro ends with "Weep when you read the response of Python’s maintainers!", referring to https://bugs.python.org/issue14976. The issue was originally about signals, threads, and Queue's, which Itamar admits "don't interact well". The solution to that was to document "Don't do this.".
Followup: When Itamar posted, yesterday, a clear demonstration that there is a bug in other, more reasonable code, the response has been to reopen the issue, with a plan to rewrite in C using (somewhat ironically) the (somewhat hated) GIL as a lock.
