Hello. I'm the author of the PR that landed the tail-calling interpreter in CPython.

First, I want to say thank you to Nelson for spending almost a month to get to the root of this issue.

Secondly, I want to say I'm extremely embarrassed and sorry that I made such a huge oversight. I, and probably the rest of the CPython team did not expect the compiler we were using for the baseline to have that bug.

I posted an apology blog post here. https://fidget-spinner.github.io/posts/apology-tail-call.htm...
