Richard Oudkerk added the comment: It is a recent kernel and does support pipe2().
After some debugging it appears that a pipe handle created in Popen.__init__() was being leaked to a forked process, preventing Popen.__init__() from completing before the forked process did. Previously the test passed because Popen.__init__() acquired the fork lock. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16500> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
