New submission from Ismail Donmez <ismail at namtrac.org>:

Tested on MacOSX 10.5.4, running test_multiprocessing in a tight loop :

[~/Sources/py3k]> while true;do ./python ./Lib/test/regrtest.py 
test_multiprocessing;done
test_multiprocessing
1 test OK.
test_multiprocessing
1 test OK.
test_multiprocessing
1 test OK.
test_multiprocessing
Process Process-48:
