This looks right to me but it'd be good to have @colesbury take a look as well. |

It looks like we're racing on the loading of
ob_ref_sharedin_Py_MergeZeroLocalRefcountbecause we're doing a relaxed load, leading to the object potentially being freed while another thread holds a reference to it. This is occurring because with a lock-free read from the inline values there's no other synchronization points with the thread which owns the object.This just changes the read to be acquire.
