New submission from Eric Leadbetter: The documentation on the multiprocessing library in Python 3 uses Lock.acquire()/Lock.release() in the example for primitive synchronization (https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html#synchronization-between-processes). Lock() has been changed in Python 3 to use coroutines and so the documentation should replace the call to Lock.acquire() with an appropriate yield statement.
