find_key(): This routine wasn't thread-correct, and accounts for the

release-build failures noted in bug 1041645.

This is a critical bugfix.  I'm not going to backport it, though (no time).

Core and builtins
-----------------
- The internal portable implementation of thread-local storage (TLS), used
by the ``PyGILState_Ensure()``/``PyGILState_Release()`` API, was not
thread-correct. This could lead to a variety of problems, up to and
including segfaults. See bug 1041645 for an example.
- Added a command line option, -m module, which searches sys.path for the
module and then runs it. (Contributed by Nick Coghlan.)
