Ned Deily: > No, it has always been unsafe. What's new as of 10.13/14 is that macOS tries much harder at runtime to detect such cases and more predictably cause an error rather than letter than let the process run on and possibly fail nondeterministically. Hum, in the doc, I wrote: .. versionchanged:: 3.8 On macOS, spawn start method is now the default: fork start method is no longer reliable on macOS, see :issue:`33725`. Should we change this text? Any proposition?

 On macOS, *spawn* start method is now the default: *fork* start method is no
 longer reliable on macOS, see :issue:`33725`.
