On FreeBSD6, pthread_kill() doesn't work on the main thread before the creation
of the first thread. Create therefore a dummy thread (no-op) a startup to
initialize the pthread library.
Add also a test for this use case, test written by Charles-François Natali.
Locks are implemented using a mutex and a condition variable of the pthread
library on FreeBSD6. POSIX condition variables cannot be interrupted by signals
(see pthread_cond_wait manual page).
Mac OS X adds __CF_USER_TEXT_ENCODING variable to an empty environment. Fix
also the test on the Py_ENABLE_SHARED config varible: test that the variable is
present, don't check it's value.

Try also to get more informations about the Mac OS X failure: display the keys
of the environment, instead of just the number of variables.
The previous tests used time.sleep() to synchronize two processes. If the host
was too slow, the test could fail.
The new tests only use one process, but they use a subprocess to:
- have only one thread
- have a timeout on the blocking read (select cannot be used in the test,
select always fail with EINTR, the kernel doesn't restart it)
- not touch signal handling of the parent process
All of the other methods in mailbox that create message objects take care to
close the file descriptors they use, so it seems to make sense to have
__getitem__ do so as well.

AbstractHTTPHandler.do_open() of urllib.request closes the HTTP connection if
its getresponse() method fails with a socket error. Patch written by Ezio

Use of DeviceIoControl to obtain the symlink path via the reparse tag was
removed. The code now uses GetFinalPathNameByHandle in the case of a
symbolic link and works properly given the added test which creates a symbolic
link and calls os.stat on it from multiple locations.
Victor Stinner also noticed an issue with os.lstat following the os.stat
code path when being passed bytes. The posix_lstat function was adjusted to
properly hook up win32_lstat instead of the previous STAT macro (win32_stat).
