All of your examples there are C++. It's not clear how
any of this relates to Python.

How does it work? Is it pulling some kind of stack switching
trick? If so, I would be skeptical about the portability and
reliability.

Also, if it requires the Python interpreter to become C++
or depend on a C++ runtime, it's not going to be accepted.
