[issue20353] Hanging bug with multiprocessing + sqlite3 + tkinter (OS X 10.9 only)

[Craig Silverstein]

New submission from Craig Silverstein:

Don't ask me how, but our code managed to combine multiprocessing, sqlite, and tkinter all in one app, and got a hanging behavior, though only on a particular OS.  Removing any of these removes the hang.  I filed this under tkinter, but the fault could well be elsewhere.

This happens for us only when run under OS X 10.9 (Mavericks).  We are using python 2.7.5; I don't know if other versions are affected.
