  Move abc._Abstract into object by adding a new flag Py_TPFLAGS_IS_ABSTRACT,
  which forbids constructing types that have it set. The effect is to speed

    ./python.exe -m timeit -s 'import abc' -s 'class Foo(object): __metaclass__ = abc.ABCMeta' 'Foo()'

  up from 2.5us to 0.201us. This fixes issue 1762.

  Thread.start() used sleep(0.000001) to make sure it didn't return before the
  new thread had started. At least on my MacBook Pro, that wound up sleeping for
  a full 10ms (probably 1 jiffy). By using an Event instead, we can be absolutely
  certain that the thread has started, and return more quickly (217us).

  Before:
  $  ./python.exe -m timeit -s 'from threading import Thread'  't = Thread(); t.start(); t.join()'
  100 loops, best of 3: 10.3 msec per loop
  $  ./python.exe -m timeit -s 'from threading import Thread; t = Thread()'  't.isAlive()'
  1000000 loops, best of 3: 0.47 usec per loop

  After:
  $  ./python.exe -m timeit -s 'from threading import Thread'  't = Thread(); t.start(); t.join()'
  1000 loops, best of 3: 217 usec per loop
  $  ./python.exe -m timeit -s 'from threading import Thread; t = Thread()'  't.isAlive()'
  1000000 loops, best of 3: 0.86 usec per loop

  To be fair, the 10ms isn't CPU time, and other threads including the spawned
  one get to run during it. There are also some slightly more complicated ways to
  get back the .4us in isAlive() if we want.

  Change simple instances (in Fraction) of self.numerator and self.denominator to
  self._numerator and self._denominator. This speeds abs() up from 12.2us to
  10.8us and trunc() from 2.07us to 1.11us. This doesn't change _add and friends
  because they're more complicated.

This makes it possible to use ABCs in weakref.py

Guido said:
Please roll this back.  The error message you added is inappropriate

collections.Sequence.register()

Warning required when calling register() on an ABCMeta subclass.

counter, hoping this may plug a race condition (but then again, this
whole module isn't coded to be thread-safe).
