Use Processes rather than Threads to avoid gobject.threads_init().

Calling gobject.threads_init() if you have multiple threads is absolutely
the right thing to do.

However, it creates a pipe(2) and sets up watches on this so that one thread
can wake another.

Python's multiprocessing spawns processes, but it only uses fork(2) to do this,
meaning that the children will inherit the parent's file descriptors.

Therefore if you combine threads, gobject and multiprocessing in one app
the children will be able to interfere with the parent using these fds.

When using some glib functions in the child (such as calling gnome-keyring)
it will write things to the pipe to wake other threads, but as the pipe is
shared it can wake the wrong one.

In addition when the child closes it can leave the parent in a confused state,
where it continually polls the pipe, taking up all the CPU.

There are several things you can do about this:

  * Not do any glib stuff involving watches or timeouts etc. in the child.
  * Not use threads in the parent and so not call gobject.threads_init()
  * Not use multiprocessing and do everything in threads.

The other alternative would be to properly isolate the children. glib
goes some way towards this by allowing you to change the GMainContext
for a thread, and you could use that in the child processes, except:

  * You can't do this from python currently.
  * Not all library code may use this properly and so cause issues anyway.

Here we took the approach to not use any threads. Anything that didn't
need to be a thread was made not to be one (Dispatcher), and anything
that needed to run in parallel was changed to use multiprocessing (MapAsync,
couchdb Monitor). This means we can delete the gobject.threads_init()
call and so avoid the pipe that was inherited and the bad behaviour.
There may be any number of other issues with the children sharing too
much global state of the parent though.

Or, in other words, global state bad.

Don't race between closing the debconf socket and accessing it.

As the gobject io watch events arrive asynchronously they can race with
the closing of the socket. Use a lock to ensure that they don't access the
socket at the same time, and a variable so that the callback will exit
queitly if it loses the race and waits on the lock.

Don't crash when class_name or res_name are NULL.

Some apps will create windows with NULL class_name or res_name, and
the code should handle this. This change just prevents the crash,
it may be more appropriate to exclude these windows.

Add "python-celementtree | python-elementtree" to Depends and
Build-Depends-Indep, for python2.4. The code will optimistically import
the former, but fall back to the latter. They aren't needed on python2.5,
as it first tries to import the module built in to that version, so these
can be dropped again when python2.4 is removed from the archive. Thanks
to Colin Watson.
