Yeah I think the issue is related to a few test fixtures setup / teardown.
When I have some more time I'll try and narrow down what's wrong with
specific tests.  There may be some tests that are / aren't reentrant.
Some tests work well, for example python3 -m nose --verbose --processes 2
test_gluon, but test_operator just starts reporting errors after 20 or so
tests.
