Lukas Lueg <knabberknusperhaus at yahoo.de> added the comment:

The lock is created while having the GIL in EVP_update. No other
function releases the GIL (besides the creator-function which does not
need the local lock).

Thereby no other thread can be in between ENTER and LEAVE while the lock
is allocated.
