Do not load arch kernels on free-threaded Python#494
Open
Conversation
Free-threaded Python interpreters do not support ABI3 before Python 3.15, so there is no way to extensions that use a stable ABI. So to avoid segfaulting, we disable support for arch kernels on such interpreters.

Thanks! How about we also add a test to check if warning is properly raised?

| kernel = get_kernel("kernels-test/versions", version=1) | ||
| assert kernel.version() == "1" | ||
| assert kernel.version() == 1 |
