[Zope-dev] Parallel subprocesses ready to merge

My branch that can (but by default doesn't) run subprocesses in
parallel is ready to merge.  It's not a panacea (if you have carefully
crafted layers that can all be torn down, your test runs will probably
be slower with the feature switched on), but for the common -- I
believe -- case of having several layers that can't be torn down,
tests run much faster on multi-core machines.

The branch is svn+ssh://svn.zope.org/repos/main/zope.testing/branches/benji-parallelize-subprocesses.
 If no one finds major problems with the branch by the middle of next
week, I'll merge it to the trunk.
