Bug report
Bug description:
Python 3.15rc2 (from the official installer on macos x86_64 (rosetta emulation, not confirmed for native x86 hardware) creates a second thread at startup, causing any attempt to use os.fork with deprecation warnings enabled to emit a warning. This does not occur on arm64 builds or on non-macos platforms (tested linux and windows, x86 and arm).
Reproduction steps
- Install python 3.15rc2 from https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3150rc2. Tested environment: M1 Macbook Pro running macos 26.6.2. Also observed on whatever github's
macos-15runner gives you. - Run
arch -arm64 python3.15 -Werror -c 'import os; os.fork()'. See that no output is produced. - Run
arch -x86_64 python3.15 -Werror -c 'import os; os.fork()'. It prints
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
import os; os.fork()
~~~~~~~^^
DeprecationWarning: This process (pid=98584) is multi-threaded, use of fork() may lead to deadlocks in the child.
Expected results
A freshly started interpreter should not be running more than one thread and should be able to fork without warning.

3.15

Run the two reported arch commands with Python 3.15rc2 and compare the macOS arm64 and x86_64 behavior around os.fork(). Trace interpreter startup and thread creation on the x86_64 build; done when a fresh interpreter has no extra thread and the reported fork deprecation warning is absent.
