This discussion is now off-topic for the python bug tracker.  Please
ask questions on how to use python in an appropriate  forum such as
python-list.

The problem you have uncovered only occurs if fork() is called
*during* module import.  If you place fork() in a function, it will
not be called when you import the module or the function, - only when
you call the function.
