New submission from Luciano Dionisio:

After spending a lot of time trying to understand why my code will not execute 
as expected and after not getting any help from StackOverflow:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/41444081/python-multiprocessing-manager-delegate-client-connection-and-dont-wait

I assumed that it may be a possible glitch in the interaction of a thread and a 
multiprocessing manager.

I have tried this in Python 2.7.13 and Python 3.6.0 and assume the problem 
still exists in between and beyond.

The problem appears when I try to delegate the connect() method of a 
multiprocessing manager client to a thread. The first time the procedure takes 
place, everything works fine and there is no problem of shared memory or 
anything. The problem arises on the second and forth trials of connect, when 
there seems to be a memory sharing problem. To reproduce the problem you have 
to run the server.py and client.py modules. You can see that the client is 
capable of populating the server's queue. If you terminate the server.py 
process and start it again, the client can no longer reassign the remote queue. 
Actually, reconnecting to the server always take place, as well as the correct 
linkage to the remote queue on line 53 of bridge.py:

self.items_buffer = self.remote_manager.items_buffer()

but the problem is that this procedure no longer works after the first time. 
Even though the connection is re-established, and at the moment of reconnection 
it is possible to send info to the server, whenever the thread dies, the pipe 
gets somehow broken.
