The problem w/ this is that people are going to use multiprocessing
and then someone is going to try running code which uses it on
IronPython/Jython and it isn't going to work. So maybe we could have
a version of multiprocessing that transparently works in a completely
different fashion under the hood but it seems like the module should
still exist and be usable.
