[issue9733] Can't iterate over multiprocessing.managers.DictProxy

DictProxy doesn't support iterkeys(), itervalues(), or iteritems() either.
So while

    iter(d)

could do
     iter(d.keys())

behind the scenes, it would mask the fact that this would not return
an *iterator* over the keys, but send a potentially long list of keys back to the client.
