Bug #8660: rb_thread_blocking_region deprecated, no alternative in ruby.h
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8660#change-40594

Author: mattconnolly (Matt Connolly)
Status: Rejected

Target version: 
ruby -v: 2.0.0-p247
Backport: 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: UNKNOWN


In "ruby/intern.h", the function declaration for `rb_thread_blocking_region` is deprecated. The comment says "Use rb_thread_call_without_gvl family instead", yet there are no functions from that family in the header that can be used by extensions.

Should the method `rb_thread_call_without_gvl` be included in the header "ruby/intern.h" ?
