Start with the migrated BPO issue 16003 and pull request #22068, then inspect the existing discussion about thread_PyThread_start_new_thread. The issue does not name source files, tests, or the intended replacement for the generic error; completion would require determining that scope and confirming the behavior with relevant tests.
