[issue3050] Implement PEP 371: multiprocessing module

[Jesse Noller]

Jesse Noller <jnoller at gmail.com> added the comment:

Attached is rev 1 of a complete patch for inclusion in 2.6. This patch 
was developed off of trunk and includes the unit tests, docs, modules, c 
module, etc. 

2 of the unit tests had to be commented out, the first due to the 
difference in the threading versus process API (is_set vs. isSet) and 
the second is an OS/X issue I am working with Richard on.

Note, some of the examples may be out of date - I am working on those.

A full review of this would be appreciated. Pending the application of 
the patch in issue 1638, this initial revision could be applied to trunk 
for the wednesday build.
