OK, it happens in kf5-qt5 rather than in stable-kf5-qt5

One of the KIO-using threads seems stuck in QProcess.... smells like a Qt bug?
Or is there a reason why starting a new process or creating a new pipe would
sometimes fail (some ulimit?)

Context: this test starts 20 threads at once, each of which starts a QProcess 
(using startDetached) (for the kioslave binary). It works most of the time, but 
sometimes
hangs with the bt below.

Config: Using QtTest library 5.5.1, Qt 5.5.1 (x86_64-little_endian-lp64 shared 
(dynamic) debug build; by GCC 4.9.2)

After many tries I got it to hang under strace -f as well.
Here's the log: http://www.davidfaure.fr/2015/strace.output.bz2
pipe2() succeeds 40 times, so that's not the problem...

Process 7389 (which works) does set_robust_list, close(43), execve(kioslave).
Process 7391 (which hangs) does set_robust_list, close(43) ... and nothing else.
Overall I see 60 calls to clone(), 40 calls to pipe2(), but only 16 calls to 
execve(kioslave).
Help?
