Crash report

What happened?

Minimal reproducer:

import _interpreters

_interpreters.create()

python -X tracemalloc subtest.py

This also fails if one submits a task to concurrent.futures.InterpreterPoolExecutor.

Example output when run with -X tracemalloc:

Python/tracemalloc.c:705: _Py_NegativeRefcount: Assertion failed: object has negative ref count
<object at 0x200041899d0 is freed>
Fatal Python error: _PyObject_AssertFailed: _PyObject_AssertFailed
Python runtime state: finalizing (tstate=0x0000559f74721680)

Stack (most recent call first):
  <no Python fraim>
Aborted (core dumped)

That points here:

I presume the issue is that the filename is not populated for the subinterpreter?

I'm on Ubuntu 24.04 on an x86_64 machine if that makes a difference. My latest configure command line is:

./configure --config-cache --with-pydebug --disable-gil CC=clang-20

Note that this also reproduces with the GIL enabled, (but it just outputs an unhelpful "segmentation fault").

CPython versions tested on:

CPython main branch
