Provide a sanity check during PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent() and
PyThreadState_Delete() to avoid an infinite loop when the tstate list
is messed up and has somehow becomes circular and does not contain the
current thread.
I don't know how this happens but it does, *very* rarely. On more than
one hardware platform. I have not been able to reproduce it manually.
Attaching to a process where its happening: it has always been in an
infinite loop over a single element tstate list that is not the tstate
we're looking to delete. It has been in t_bootstrap()'s call to
PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent() as a pthread is exiting.

$ chmod +x myscript.py
+On Windows systems, there is no notion of an "executable mode". The Python
+installer automatically associates ``.py`` files with ``python.exe`` so that
+a double-click on a Python file will run it as a script. The extension can
+also be ``.pyw``, in that case, the console window that normally appears is
+suppressed.
