I fear that you can call Python functions in general only on
the current thread (the other's probably lack the GIL,
an essential requirement to execute Python code).

Moreover, it seems that your Python is build without
debugging symbols. Debugging symbols are almost
a must when you try to analyse problems at this level.
I would rebuild Python with debugging symbols (and, if possible,
without optimizations).
