Minor updates for BeOS R5.
Use of OSError in test.test_fork1 changed to TestSkipped, with corresponding

Instead of assuming that the number process ids of the threads is the
same as the process id of the controlling process, use a copy of the
dictionary and check for changes in the process ids of the threads
from the thread's process ids in the parent process. This makes the
test make more sense on systems which assign a new pid to each thread
(i.e., Linux).
This doesn't fix the other problems evident with this test on Linux.
