Option 4: lose the trashcan mechanism. I don't think the free-threading issue was ever resolved.
Option 5: Forget about free threading, change trashcan in a way that it doesn't change the order of destruction, doesn't need memory at all, and therefore does not change anything if it is disabled in debug mode.
hehe... :-) Definitely possible. Seems like you could just statically allocate an array of PyObject* and drop the pointers in there (without an INCREF or anything). Place them there, in order. Dunno about the debug stuff, and how that would affect it. Cheers, -g -- Greg Stein, http://www.lyra.org/
