I've seen the failure very often, without any particular load.

New submission from Stefan Krah:
I'm getting the following test_multiprocessing_fork failures on Debian
Wheezy. Perhaps this is related to #19227:
test_default_timeout (test.test_multiprocessing_fork.WithThreadsTestBarrier)
... Exception in thread Thread-344:
