[issue27591] multiprocessing: Possible uninitialized pointer use in Windows builds

STINNER Victor added the comment:

It's a little strange that nobody reports a multiprocessing crash on Windows before. It looks like ResetEvent() is called with a random number (coming from the uninitialized stack memory).

Windows is probably smart and does nothing if the argument is not a known handle of an event object.
