python-billiard 4.2.0

Python multiprocessing fork with improvements and bugfixes

Billiard is a fork of the Python 2.7 multiprocessing package. The multiprocessing package itself is a renamed and updated version of R Oudkerk's pyprocessing package. This standalone variant is intended to be compatible with Python 2.4 and 2.5, and will draw its fixes/improvements from python-trunk.
