run-tests: replace popen locking with a noop _cleanup handler on py24
This also avoids the race condition, and isn't detrimental to job scheduling.
run-tests: only lock Popen wait/poll on python 2.4
It can cause scheduling bubbles and is not necessary on newer pythons.
run-tests: lock popen wait/poll

process, and wait is not thread-safe. Make it thread-safe.
