This is because PyThreadState_Get() assumes a non-NULL thread state and crashes otherwise; but PyThreadState_GET is just a shortcut (in non-Python-debugging builds) for the global variable that holds the thread state
The behavior of CTRL+C is slightly more erratic than one would like. CTRL+C in the middle of execution of Python code will cause that execution to be interrupted (e.g. time.sleep(1000)), but a CTRL+C at the prompt will just cause a KeyboardInterrupt and not exit the interpreter - worse, it will only trigger the exception once one presses ENTER.
None of this is optimal, of course, but I don't have a lot of time to appease the Python deities with the proper spells right now, and fixing the crasher is already a good thing in and of itself
