> Be careful, Python must remain usable after Py_Finalize(): it's legit to call Py_Initialize() again and execute new Python code. Example executing the same code 4 times, each time Py_Initialize() and Py_Finalize() are called:

./Programs/_testembed test_repeated_init_exec 'print("Hello")'

With the current design, it isn't possible though because the code objects are modified in place so if co_quickened is freed the VM still tries to execute the copied instructions.
