[capi-sig] What can I do without GIL?

[Nikolaus Rath]

Hello,

I a thread does not hold the GIL, is it totally forbidden to call any
Py* API functions at all, or are there some exceptions?

More concretely, am I allowed to create fresh Python objects with
PyBytes_FromString et. al. without holding the GIL?


Thanks,

   -Nikolaus
