alda: Alda not starting workers in some cases

Forked from the comments of https://github.com/alda-lang/alda/issues/266#issuecomment-248302194

Since upgrading to rc41 from rc31, alda doesn’t spawn workers on my windows machine:

λ alda up
[27713] Starting Alda server...
[27713] Server up ?
[27713] Starting worker processes...
[ this hangs, I waited for 5 minutes ]
^C

λ alda status
[27713] Server up (0/2 workers available)

The issue started affecting me again. I think I might have figured out what’s causing it. I’ll see if it is reproducible and let you know the results.

alda seems to be running perfectly for me now.

Thanks! I’m away from home until tomorrow afternoon, but I’ll run the test scripts as soon as I return.
