[issue874900] threading module can deadlock after fork

[Gregory P. Smith]

Gregory P. Smith <greg at krypto.org> added the comment:

it passes on release25-maint for me on linux.  i don't see it hanging in
any of the 2.5 buildbots.  looks like your r66003 change was a decent
fix for windows judging by the buildbot.

(fwiw, that test you patched in 66003 should probably use readlines()
and assertListEqual to be cross platform rather than the code thats
there now but i'm not motivated to change that unless some other
platform fails on it)

priority: critical -> release blocker
