New submission from STINNER Victor:

The following test fails on FreeBSD buildbot:

    def test_finalize_with_trace(self):
        # Issue1733757
        # Avoid a deadlock when sys.settrace steps into threading._shutdown
        assert_python_ok("-c", """if 1:
            import sys, threading

            # A deadlock-killer, to prevent the
            # testsuite to hang forever
            def killer():
                import os, time
                time.sleep(2)
                print('program blocked; aborting')
                os._exit(2)
            t = threading.Thread(target=killer)
            t.daemon = True
            t.start()

            # This is the trace function
            def func(frame, event, arg):
                threading.current_thread()
                return func

            sys.settrace(func)
            """)

I ran it manually on my FreeBSD 9.1 VM, I get the following error. I don't know 
if it's the same error than the buildbot.

The weakref is probably threading._dangling.

IMO Py_Finalize() should first clear the trace function. Tracing Python 
exception while Python is dying (exiting) is insane. I'm surprised that it 
works :-)
