           Summary: lang/python36: thread issue in external library (both
                    ctypes and C extension)

Hello,=20

I have libsylvain.so which has just one function (sylvain_display()) which
displays an hello world windows through QT libraries.

I have this one program `sylvain' which is a single line program which calls
sylvain_display from libsylvain.so.

When I run `sylvain', I have some debug output from QT on the console, and =
the
hello world window is displayed on my TV (I am running this on a Raspberry =
Pi
with FreeBSD).

Now, when I run python2.7 or python3.6, and load libsylvain.so either throu=
gh
the ctypes module or through a C extension module, and call the
sylvain_display() function from python, I have the console log output from =
QT
as with the `sylvain' program, but I don't have the window on my TV!

I guess the rendering to the TV is done on a separate thread and this one is
not called or locked?

I came up with this simple test program to isolate the issue because both P=
yQT
and PySide now don't work as expected, I have console log but no actual TV
output.

This used to work one year ago, I don't know what has changed in Python.=20

Hope you guys will figure this out.

Also tried with a C extension to rule out ctypes bug, same issue:
