Semaphores?

Anyone got a favorite way to implement shared memory semaphores in
Python?  The obvious way is with an atomic test-and-set operation in
the mmap module, but none seems to be listed in the docs.  Is there a
preferred way to do it?  If not, should I submit a PEP to add
something to mmap?

Thanks.
