[issue9205] Parent process hanging in multiprocessing if children terminate unexpectedly

[Brian Quinlan]

Brian Quinlan <brian at sweetapp.com> added the comment:

Under what circumstances do we expect a ProcessPoolExecutor child process to be killed outside of the control of the ProcessPoolExecutor?

If the user kills a child then maybe all we want to do is raise an exception rather than deadlock as a convenience.
