For nested SPI case, one option is to turn off the bool variable when entering the SPI function(PLy_spi_prepare, PLy_spi_execute, PLy_cursor etc.)
and turn on the bool variable again when exiting the SPI function.
If it's OK, we could follow this way to update Heikki's patch.

Yeah, that's what I had in mind, too. A global bool variable that's set when you enter libpython, and cleared on return. Need to handle nesting, i.e if a PL/python function runs a slow query with SPI, and cancellation happens during that. And the case that the SPI query calls another PL/python function. - Heikki
