Subject: Backport gvanrossum's checkin of revision 1.20:
X-Git-Tag: v2.1.2c1~13
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a82adf926ba0160c5913e50850bc2394d269150a;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

Backport gvanrossum's checkin of revision 1.20:

Thread.__bootstrap(): ignore exceptions in the self.__delete() call in
the finally clause.  An exception here could happen when a daemon
thread exits after the threading module has already been trashed by
the import finalization, and there's not much of a point in trying to
insist doing the cleanup in that stage.

This should fix SF bug ##497111: active_limbo_lock error at program
exit.
