I'm running Python 2.7 in a sandboxed OS X app. There are restrictions on the
naming of POSIX semaphores when running in the sandbox. Specifically, there is
a mandatory prefix.
I would like the ability to inject this prefix into the part

(long)getpid(), counter++);
} else {
PyOS_snprintf(buffer

From the description above, I would guess shared memory names as well, but I
don't know which parts of the Python library use those, if any.
In general, it's easy to adjust the Python code to deal with the restriction of
the sandboxed environment (mostly file

Great to hear that this is mostly supported in 3.4. I would definitely like to
see the small change added that lets me insert a string before the leading
slash.
It would also be helpful to have it in Python 2.7 as well
