It seems the old pyprocessing (http://pyprocessing.berlios.de/) can do 
some things that the new multiprocessing package can not; 
sending/receiving connection objects for one.
This is a quite handy functionality, so it would be nice if it were 
reintroduced.
Also, the error message isn't very helpful.
Failing test below.
