New submission from Arnaud Ysmal <stack...@netbsd.org>:

Using get(timeout=1) on a multiprocessing.Queue sometimes leads to a blocking 
get.

It seems that there is no check whether the timeout has expired after acquiring 
the lock but before the time.time(), which can cause a call to poll() with a 
negative timeout.

(patch attached)
