Create patch sets for 2.4 and 2.5 core Python #2

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
It's possible that all core Python bug fixes required to run multiprocessing
on older versions will get added to 2.5.3.  We would still need a patch
set for 2.5 <= 2.5.2 and for all 2.4 versions.  Those might well be 
distributed as alternate downloads from this project or picked up by
core Python for source-only releases.

So far the unit test suite doesn't reveal serious issues in Python 2.5.2 and 
2.4.5
except of one missing feature. The 2.4 series doesn't support anonmyous mmap. I
assume a backport to 2.4 is just the matter of compiling 2.5's mmap extension 
with
Python 2.4.
