This is the area where I am most worried. Though multiprocessing is a
drop in replacement for threading, threading is not currently a drop
in replacement for multiprocessing. If multiprocessing doesn't make
sense for Jython and we need to tell our users that they should just
use threading, threading needs to do everything that multiprocessing
does... or maybe there needs to be a higher level package?
