Thanks for the report, but it's a duplicate of #17707 (recently fixed).

New submission from ProgVal:
In Python 3.3, multiprocessing.Process.join() is not blocking with floats lower
than 1.0 (not included). It works as expected (ie. blocking for the specified
timeout) in Python 2.6->3.2
As you can see in this example, calling join() with 0.99 returns immediately.
