Looks like a timeout problem: the test sleeps for 0.5s before triggering an event in one process and then waits 1s for the event in another process.  The timeout is a little tight so I'm curious if this happens again: if it does then increasing the delay multiplier in Lib/test/_test_multiprocessing.py:check_forkserver_death() should do the trick.

Has not happened in 6 months.
