Message 325404 - Python tracker

I discussed with Pablo (at the CPython sprint) about the case of FreeBSD.

On FreeBSD, posix_spawn() always uses vfork, so it can be surprising to get an error when using use_vfork=True. But, the error message is now very explicit: it mentions that a specific constant is not available on FreeBSD. The documentation is also clear on that point.
