@kumaraditya303, see #125058. We should check if this makes threading.Lock.acquire() interruptible on Windows. If so, it probably deserves a NEWS entry and possibly a documentation update.

It doesn't, it is not interruptible.

Sorry, @kumaraditya303, I could not cleanly backport this to 3.13 due to a conflict.
Please backport using cherry_picker on command line.

This change introduced a regression: #125451.

#125116 is a backport of this pull request to the 3.13 branch.

IMO this change should not be backported to 3.13 in a bugfix release. It's too big, it can cause regression as you can see.

I don't think there's a bug in _thread.lock, but I'm okay with reverting the backport
