empty() returns False when there is data in the underlying pipe.  But 
the data does not enter the pipe until a background thread has written 
it to the pipe.  This should not cause any problems.

Using Queue.empty() is always subject to races.  It is just that the 
multiprocessing version has an additional type of race compared to the 
normal one.
