SEGV in `_PyObject_ClearFreeLists` after exception in subinterpreter

[wiomoc]

What happened?

Executing the following two file python script with python3.14 -m src crashes the (sub?)interpreter with a SIGSEGV.

# src/executor.py
import importlib
import sys
import traceback

def execute_module():
    importlib.invalidate_caches()
    sys.modules = "xxx"
    importlib.import_module("zip")

# src/__main__,py
from concurrent import interpreters

sub_interpreter = interpreters.create()
queue = interpreters.create_queue()

def run_module(queue):
    import importlib
    execute_module_fn = importlib.import_module("src.executor").execute_module
    execute_module_fn()
    queue.put(True)

sub_interpreter.call(run_module, queue)
queue.get()
sub_interpreter.close()

The following reduction shows the same crashing behavior, I wasn't able to reproduce it while running in gdb however.

from concurrent import interpreters

sub_interpreter = interpreters.create()

def run_module():
    import importlib
    import sys
    import traceback

    importlib.invalidate_caches()
    sys.modules = "xxx"
    importlib.import_module("zip")

sub_interpreter.call(run_module)
sub_interpreter.close()
