Re: [PATCH 3/4] Change thread_to_thread_object to return a new reference
I have some comments about style, correctness-wise is looks good to me.

I would suggest using Py_RETURN_NONE, which we already use at many places.
Instead of setting that result variable, is there something preventing you
from returning directly above, like this?
if (thread_info != NULL)
return thread_to_thread_object (thread_info).release ();
The bottom line could just be unconditionally Py_RETURN_NONE.

I know it's logically not supposed to happen, but here it's possible for
thread_to_thread_object to return NULL. Returning NULL to Python is the
way to have it throw an exception, I believe, is that what you want to do
here? The previous code would return None in that case.

Again, I would suggest Py_RETURN_NONE.
I would also propose moving the code below in the if, to show that it only
really applies to the non-stop case (if I understand the code correctly).
