A workaround is got into python port 2.3.3_2. Please test it whether

I am not sure if it's Python problem or our libpthread problem. I
failed to reproduce the situation with compact C code. (waitpid(2)
returned -1 with errno=EINTR on a child's normal termination.)
If you get a reasonable explanation that saying it's Python's
problem, please tell me.
