[issue6380] Deadlock during the "import" in the fork()'ed child process if fork() happened while import_lock was held

[Brett Cannon]

Just to answer Greg's question, importlib uses a context manager to manage the import lock so as long as that surfaces the right thing in a fork then things will be fine.
