The ThreadStateMappingClass stores ThreadState's in a ThreadLocal. It provides no way to release the reference to the ThreadState, short of destroying the thread. In particular, if you load Jython in its own classloader, then shutdown Jython (e.g. PythonInterpreter.cleanup()), the thread local pins a reference to the whole classloader.
