Some observations:
If I replace the call to sys.stderr.write with a simple 
print, then I get a
single asterisk. Is sys.stderr.write() perhaps buffered?
Call it with "python -u" and it is unbuffered:
"""-u     : unbuffered binary stdout and stderr (also
PYTHONUNBUFFERED=x)"""
Unbuffered output results in a single child and a single asterisk.

Thanks to Bill and Daryl for the info -- I'll read the fine manual next time
:-)
