My idea is that if we can cleanup the built-in extension modules then maybe that would be enough to stop doing a lot of the finalization hacks (e.g. module dict clearing). If 3rd party extension modules are not fixed, then some finalizers that used to be called might no longer get called. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
