Thanks Richard.
I wonder if the issues with the multiprocessing tests can be fixed by making 
use of Barriers?

One of the reasons I introduced Barriers into the lib originally was my alarm 
at seeing the various springklings of different _wait() calls in the unittests, 
particularly in the threading module (there are Condition variable tests there 
still that have race conditions, that are cunnrently hidden by liberal use of 
_wait())

Then I started to wonder if it were appropriate to use a Barrier in the 
Condition variable tests, particularly given that the former is implemented by 
way of the latter :)
