Summary: fix race condition in unicode

Initial Comment:
There's a race condition in the importing of the
encodings in codecs.c that can cause an exception in
threaded programs.  This happens to me occasionally
when I start up a threaded server and two threads
happen to both do the first unicode operation at the
same time,

Attached is a tarball containing a test program and a
patch to codecs.c that fixes the problem.  See the
comments in the test program for more details.  The
patch was based on the 2.2.2 source.
