Fix issue #1590864, multiple threads and fork() can cause deadlocks, by
acquiring the import lock around fork() calls. This prevents other threads
from having that lock while the fork happens, and is the recommended way of
dealing with such issues. There are two other locks we care about, the GIL
and the Thread Local Storage lock. The GIL is obviously held when calling
Python functions like os.fork(), and the TLS lock is explicitly reallocated
instead, while also deleting now-orphaned TLS data.
This only fixes calls to os.fork(), not extension modules or embedding
programs calling C's fork() directly. Solving that requires a new set of API
functions, and possibly a rewrite of the Python/thread_*.c mess. Add a
warning explaining the problem to the documentation in the mean time.
This also changes behaviour a little on AIX. Before, AIX (but only AIX) was
getting the import lock reallocated, seemingly to avoid this very same
problem. This is not the right approach, because the import lock is a
re-entrant one, and reallocating would do the wrong thing when forking while
holding the import lock.
Will backport to 2.6, minus the tiny AIX behaviour change.

Issue 6070: when creating a compiled file, after copying the mode bits, on
posix zap the execute bit in case it was set on the .py file, since the
compiled files are not directly executable on posix. Patch by Marco N.

Conditionalize test cleanup code to eliminate traceback, which will
hopefully reveal the real problem.

Curdir needs to be in the path for the test to work on all buildbots.
(I copied this from another import test, but currently this will fail if
TESTFN ends up in /tmp...see issue 2609).

There's still a batch of non-prototype warnings in Xlib.h that I don't know how

The construct is transformed into multiple With AST nodes so that
there should be no problems with the semantics.
