Crash report

What happened?

It's possible to abort the interpreter by calling multiprocessing.shared_memory.ShareableList.count in threads with PYTHON_GIL=0 in a debug build:

import gc
import multiprocessing.shared_memory
from threading import Thread

obj = multiprocessing.shared_memory.ShareableList("Uq..SeDAmB+EBrkLl.SG.Z+Z.ZdsV..wT+zLxKwdN\b")

for x in range(10):
    Thread(target=obj.count, args=(1,)).start()

del obj
gc.collect()

Result:

Exception ignored in: <function SharedMemory.__del__ at 0x200006bbfb0>
Traceback (most recent call last):
