[issue900092] hotshot.stats.load fails with AssertionError

[Amaury Forgeot d'Arc]

I added some prints in the hotshot.stats.load function, this lead to
interesting things:

- first, the program seems to spawn subprocesses which trace themselves
in the same file.

- however, there is real issue when fork() is called on a traced
program: calls to _execvpe should not appear in the trace!
IMO PyOS_AfterFork should disable any trace or profile function.
