Research direction

Start by reviewing the linked PyCall.jl issues 1095, 1090, 1088, 1083, 1078, 1077, 1072, 1082, and 1080, plus the Revise.jl issue 989. Compare their multithreading-related crashes and reproduce the common failure before defining a focused fix or follow-up; done means the related reports are understood and the work is scoped beyond this meta-issue.
