Hi, I've been wondering whether it's possible to release the GIL in the regex engine during matching.
I know that it needs to have the GIL during memory-management calls, but does it for calls like Py_UNICODE_TOLOWER or PyErr_SetString? Is there an easy way to find out? Or is it just a case of checking the source files for mentions of the GIL? The header file for PyList_New, for example, doesn't mention it!
