Regarding the "with gil" code, ISTM that the "finally" code in the with_gil
test is being duplicated. I noticed this when I moved the refnanny's GIL
state into a block local variable and that broke the C code. Basically, the
with-gil block had declared the variable in its own block, but was then
trying to access that variable in a second finally clause, further down and
outside of the with-gil block.

Looks like a bug to me.
