> What downsides do we see raising an exception? Yeah, on second thought, that would probably be best. We still want PR #15641 as well, so the exception doesn't actually happen in practice. Note that _PyEval_EvalCodeWithName (the main use of func_globals) already fails with an exception if globals is NULL. > Either we remove tp_clear or somehow we have to protect all callers of the > function.
