"""
Expose a race in the _warnings module, which is the C backend for the
warnings module. The "_warnings" module tries to access attributes of the
"warnings" module (because of the API it has to support), but doing so
during interpreter shutdown is problematic. Specifically, the call to
PyImport_GetModuleDict() in Python/_warnings.c:get_warnings_attr will
abort() if the modules dict has already been cleaned up.

This crasher is timing-dependent, and more threads (NUM_THREADS) may be
necessary to expose it reliably on different systems.
