[issue13829] exception error in _scproxy.so when called after fork

I have run into this bug which can be reliably reproduced by importing tkinter.

However, I have found another workaround if one does not want to deal with the environmental variable and may point to a possible bug fix. Before forking, any use of `urlopen` alleviates the bug. This is demonstrated in the attached example.

Example works under Python 3.6.4 and Mac OS 10.12.6
