Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

We already have a Barrier class actually: 
http://docs.python.org/dev/library/threading.html#barrier-objects

As for accepting negative initialization values, it sounds like a reasonable 
request. One reason for rejecting would be if it makes writing a fast 
implementation harder. Also, multiprocessing.Semaphore should be kept 
compatible with threading.Semaphore.
