If so, it looks like it might be possible to give Python a fork() that works on Windows, at least for the time being.
It's quite a challenge. That call just creates a process, and not thread. You need to invoke many more API calls to make the process actually run.
For some reason (which I couldn't figure out), Cygwin abstained from using that in their implementation of fork.
