The only safe way to "abort" a thread is by having it exit on

Unfortunately, this does not map very well with my program. Each of my
threads are calling foreign code (still written in python though),
which might be busy for 1 to 10 minutes with its own job.
I wanted something to easily interrupt every thread to prevent my
program to stall for 10 minutes if I want to stop it (getting tired of
killing python all the time).
If the foreign Python code is running on your own process, can't you make
it check a flag periodically?
If it runs as another process, killing it is a lot safer than killing a
thread.
