isSequenceType(), isMappingType(), and isNumberType() in favor
of using abstract base classes.  Also, remove repeat() and irepeat()
in favor of mul() and imul().

After the buildbots have had a go at this.  Will backport to Py3.0.1.
For Py2.7, will just mark as deprecated.

  Works around issue3863: freebsd4/5/6 and os2emx are known to have OS bugs when
  calling fork() from a child thread.  This disables that unit test (with a note
  printed to stderr) on those platforms.

  A caveat about buggy platforms is added to the os.fork documentation.

  fix for issue 3862: test_array fails FreeBSD 7 amd64

  FreeBSD 7's underlying malloc() is behaves differently to earlier versions
  and seriously overcommits available memory on amd64.  This may affect
  other 64bit platforms in some circumstances, so the scale of the
  problematic test is wound back.
