System Information
Windows 8.1 64 bit; Radeon R9 280X.

Blender Version
Broken: 2.71-2.72b (release versions)
Worked: Unknown

Short description of error
PHY_GetActiveEnvironment() fails while BGE has yielded control to a custom python script via KX_GetPythonMain()/KX_GetPythonCode/PyRun_SimpleString(). As a consequence, any python function that uses it (i.e bge.constraints.getCharacter(), bge.logic.getPhysicsTicRate(), etc) causes issues in both the embeded and standalone blenderplayer implementaions.

bge.constraints.getCharacter() returns None, as it actually checks that it actually has an active environment to work with

bge.logic.getPhysicsTicRate() crashes blenderplayer outright.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
I've attached a blend file that prints the return value of getCharacter() and getPhysicsTicRate() (which causes a segfault).

I forgot to mention that I also tested in those blender versions in OSX 10.9.4.

The giving control to Python thing is really not well supported or tested. Unfortunately, I don't know if/when these types of bugs will ever be fixed since I think this code no longer has a maintainer.
