[issue1183] race in SocketServer.ForkingMixIn.collect_children

[Jeffrey Yasskin]

Jeffrey Yasskin added the comment:

Hmm. I think the race can only happen if you call collect_children()
concurrently from multiple threads or from a signal handler. The
waidpid(0) bug (which affected anyone who spawned subprocesses from
anything other than ForkingMixIn) is partly fixed by r61106, but I don't
intend to make ForkingMixIn thread- or signal-safe. Let me know if this
is enough for you. :)
