Larry Hastings added the comment:
Patch attached. The basics were okay; however, there was no locking around
access to a static variable (_Py_AllocatedBlocks) so I added some. The way the
code managed _Py_AllocatedBlocks was a bit odd; this approach resulted in fewer
lines, but it was hard to follow, and adding locking support would have muddied
it even further, so I simplified it. I also simplified the locking support a
great deal ("SIMPLELOCK": YAGNI) and touched up the relevant comment.
Finally, I noticed a minor bug wrt added _Py_AllocatedBlocks: if you call
PyMem_Realloc(NULL, 50000), that's really a new allocation, so
_Py_AllocatedBlocks needs to be incremented, but it wasn't. Since Antoine is
the father of _Py_AllocatedBlocks I added him to the nosy list.
