[issue1868] threading.local doesn't free attrs when assigning thread exits

[Martin v. Löwis]

Martin v. Löwis <martin at v.loewis.de> added the comment:

If Christian's analysis is right, and memory is released except for the
last thread, I don't think this qualifies as a release blocker.

Also (unless I misinterpret the issue), it seems that we have made many
releases already which had this bug, so it's unclear why it should block
the next release.

Tentatively lowering the priority to high.

----------
nosy: +loewis
priority: release blocker -> high
