Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

The 'pip' installer stopped working after an update. This was caused by
an implementation change: the listing of outdated packages (`list
--outdated`) now uses multiprocessing or multithreading where available.
The mechanism that checks for availability seems to depend on the
Python compile flag 'HAVE_SEM_OPEN'. In my case, the architecture being
armv7l (armhf), this setting seems to be 'HAVE_SEM_OPEN=1'. Hence pip is
made to believe multiprocessing is available. But it really is not;
functions are not implemented and an OSError is thrown. IMO the compilation
setting should rather be 'HAVE_SEM_OPEN=0'.

See https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/9047
