Florent Xicluna <la...@yahoo.fr> added the comment:

It fails if the test is run in background, and there's another process
in foreground.

Example 1:

~ $ (./python Lib/test/regrtest.py test_ioctl &) && tail -f /dev/null
test_ioctl
test test_ioctl failed -- multiple errors occurred; run in verbose mode
for details
1 test failed:
    test_ioctl


Example 2 (a shell script):

~ $ cat run_ioctl.sh
#!/bin/sh
./python Lib/test/regrtest.py -v test_ioctl > test_ioctl.log &
tail -f test_ioctl.log
