There was a problem hiding this comment.
I'd be inclined to include a NEWS entry. It can be something like:
Make the :func:`re.finditer` reentrancy detection thread-safe.

…ing (pythongh-141923) Added atomic operations to `scanner_begin()` and `scanner_end()` to prevent race conditions on the `executing` flag in free-threaded builds. Also added tests for concurrent usage of the `re` module. Without the atomic operations, `test_scanner_concurrent_access()` triggers `assert(self->executing)` failures, or a thread sanitizer run emits errors. (cherry picked from commit bc9e63d) Co-authored-by: Alper <[email protected]>
