Make multiprocessing optional, again #37

Closed kived closed 9 years ago

This used to be fixed, but then it was broken again for all platforms other than Jython. It seems pretty apparent that if there is an ImportError, then whatever platform this is running on does not have multiprocessing. Why the specific check for Java/Jython?

One of our users was trying to use this with python-for-android, which does not have multiprocessing support either. I told him to make his own copy so he could remove those imports.

I wasn't aware of any other Python implementation that needed this. It was messing with the tests.
