New submission from Ben <benjsim...@gmail.com>:

The Multiprocessing docs specifically say that Queue is process- and thread- 
safe: 
https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html#exchanging-objects-between-processes.

But this information is not given for the various synchronisation primitives 
and such (Lock, Semaphore, Event, etc)

Are they thread-safe?  Should the docs say whether they are or are not?
