Issue #7316: the acquire() method of lock objects in the :mod:`threading`

2010-04-14T15:44:10+00:00

module now takes an optional timeout argument in seconds.  Timeout support

  Issue #7222: Make thread "reaping" more reliable so that reference
  leak-chasing test runs give sensible results. The previous method of
