In the
_interpretersmodule, we usePyEval_EvalCodeto run Python code in another interpreter. However, when the process receives aKeyboardInterrupt,PyEval_EvalCodewill jump straight to finalization rather than returning. This prevents us from cleaning up and marking the thread as "not running main", which triggers an assertion inPyThreadState_Clearon debug builds. Since everything else works as intended, remove that assertion.
