Not that I want to bikeshed, but I think 'name' was ok (since you get the dict by calling threading._info(), it's obvious it has to do with threading). 'lock_implementation' would be better than 'lock', OTOH. Also, the 'pthread_version' documentation should state that it is optional (only works on GNU).

Not that I want to bikeshed, but I think 'name' was ok (since you get
the dict by calling threading._info(), it's obvious it has to do with
threading).
'lock_implementation' would be better than 'lock', OTOH.

Also, the 'pthread_version' documentation should state that it is
