Of course, I deleted that reference already, but I can dig it up if I need
it.  Not that I'm volunteering for this or anything, but perhaps there are
some things that authors should be alerted so their code in the meantime
doesn't make a future free threading Python that much more difficult to
implement.  This sort of information might profitably be added to some
documentation now (ext/embed or c api manuals?).
