What is "exception multiprocessing.BufferTooShort" at the bottom of the 
referenced section?

[issue21889] https://docs.python.org/2/library/multiprocessing.html#process-and-exceptions doesn't explain exception

[Karl Richter]

New submission from Karl Richter:

Although the section 
https://docs.python.org/2/library/multiprocessing.html#process-and-exceptions 
(of the multiprocessing module documentation) is titled "... and exceptions" it 
doesn't say anything about exceptions. I assume that it behaves like the thread 
API (as stated and referenced in the introduction of the module doc). This 
implies though that either the reference is limited to that statement (-> 
remove "and exceptions" from the header as there's no special section on them 
because everything can be found in thread API) or add an explicit reference to 
the thread API. If this assumption is wrong the section is badly organized or 
doesn't make any sense at all.

I'm not yet sure about exception handling in the multiprocessing module in case 
it's different from threads, but that shouldn't matter for this doc issue 
report. 

I'd also like to suggest a more detailed section on exceptions with usage of 
queues to pass them as objects to the parent or another process.
