SF bug #805304 : super instances don't support item assignment
...
Document a nuance of super(). It is designed to work well with dotted
attribute lookup but not with equivalent implicit lookups using operators
or statements.

The attached patch fixes FTBFS on GNU/k*BSD. The problem happens on GNU/k*BSD
...
because GNU/k*BSD uses gnu pth to provide pthreads, but will also happen on any
system that does the same.
python fails to build because it doesn't detect gnu pth in pthread
emulation. See C comments in patch for details.

Minor improvements to the threading introduction:
...
* Expand the example to show a join.
* Mention the use case of I/O running concurrent with a computational
thread.
* Be a tad more forceful about recommending Queue over other approaches
to synchonization.
* Eliminate discussion around having a single interpreter. This is a
more advanced discussion that belongs in the library reference and
in a section on extending and embedding.
