New submission from Memeplex:

Related to but not the same than https://bugs.python.org/issue13812.

Try this:

```
import multiprocessing as mp
import time


def g():
    time.sleep(100)

def f():
    mp.Process(target=g).start()
    1/0

mp.Process(target=f).start()
```

It won't show the ZeroDivisionError until you keyboard interrupt the g() 
process or wait for it to end. This is because _exit_function will join every 
active non-daemon child, which happens before printing and flushing the error. 
IMO the exception should be shown before joining children, since keeping the 
error silent is asking for trouble.
