Research direction
Start by reading and running the attached tracing-locking-mechanisms.py reproducer, then inspect the relevant Python C API documentation and lock/context-manager behavior. Determine why interception fails only when locks are used as context managers; done means the reproducer works in that form and the affected documentation or behavior is covered.
