/* The threading situation is complicated.  Tcl is not thread-safe, except
   when configured with --enable-threads.

   So we need to use a lock around all uses of Tcl.  Previously, the
   Python interpreter lock was used for this.  However, this causes
   problems when other Python threads need to run while Tcl is blocked
   waiting for events.

   To solve this problem, a separate lock for Tcl is introduced.
   Holding it is incompatible with holding Python's interpreter lock.
   The following four macros manipulate both locks together.

   ENTER_TCL and LEAVE_TCL are brackets, just like
   Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS and Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS.  They should be
   used whenever a call into Tcl is made that could call an event
   handler, or otherwise affect the state of a Tcl interpreter.  These
   assume that the surrounding code has the Python interpreter lock;
   inside the brackets, the Python interpreter lock has been released
   and the lock for Tcl has been acquired.

   Sometimes, it is necessary to have both the Python lock and the Tcl
   lock.  (For example, when transferring data from the Tcl
   interpreter result to a Python string object.)  This can be done by
   using different macros to close the ENTER_TCL block: ENTER_OVERLAP
   reacquires the Python lock (and restores the thread state) but
   doesn't release the Tcl lock; LEAVE_OVERLAP_TCL releases the Tcl
   lock.

   By contrast, ENTER_PYTHON and LEAVE_PYTHON are used in Tcl event
   handlers when the handler needs to use Python.  Such event handlers
   are entered while the lock for Tcl is held; the event handler
   presumably needs to use Python.  ENTER_PYTHON releases the lock for
   Tcl and acquires the Python interpreter lock, restoring the
   appropriate thread state, and LEAVE_PYTHON releases the Python
   interpreter lock and re-acquires the lock for Tcl.  It is okay for
   ENTER_TCL/LEAVE_TCL pairs to be contained inside the code between
   ENTER_PYTHON and LEAVE_PYTHON.

   These locks expand to several statements and brackets; they should
   not be used in branches of if statements and the like.

   If Tcl is threaded, this approach won't work anymore. The Tcl
   interpreter is only valid in the thread that created it, and all Tk
   activity must happen in this thread, also. That means that the
   mainloop must be invoked in the thread that created the
   interpreter. Invoking commands from other threads is possible;
   _tkinter will queue an event for the interpreter thread, which will
   then execute the command and pass back the result. If the main
   thread is not in the mainloop, and invoking commands causes an
   exception; if the main loop is running but not processing events,
   the command invocation will block.

   In addition, for a threaded Tcl, a single global tcl_tstate won't
   be sufficient anymore, since multiple Tcl interpreters may
   simultaneously dispatch in different threads. So we use the Tcl TLS
   API.
