[issue14308] Exception AttributeError: AttributeError("'_DummyThread' object has no attribute '_Thread__block'", ) in <module 'threading' from '/usr/lib/python2.7/threading.pyc'> ignored

[Dustin Kirkland]

New submission from Dustin Kirkland <dustin.kirkland at gmail.com>:

My Apache2 logs are filled with the following error kicked out by my python wsgi script:

[Wed Mar 14 18:16:38 2012] [error] Exception AttributeError: AttributeError("'_DummyThread' object has no attribute '_Thread__block'",) in <module 'threading' from '/usr/lib/python2.7/threading.pyc'> ignored

I was able to silence these with a simple conditional in /usr/lib/python2.7/threading.pyc:

-        del self._Thread__block
+        if hasattr(self, '_Thread__block'):
+            del self._Thread__block

Full patch attached.
