bpo-33532: Fix multiprocessing test_ignore() (GH-7262) (#7266)

vstinner · web-flow · commit c2870b699eb8 · 2018-05-31T07:35:03.000+02:00
Fix test_ignore() of multiprocessing tests like test_multiprocessing_forkserver: use support.PIPE_MAX_SIZE to make sure that send_bytes() blocks. (cherry picked from commit 5d6c7ed)
