Doh! Race condition. Make that:
import subprocess
import thread
import Queue
def readtoq(pipe, q):
q.put(pipe.read())
cat = subprocess.Popen('cat', shell=True, stdin=subprocess.PIPE,
stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
myVar = str(range(1000000)) # arbitrary test data.
q = Queue.Queue()
thread.start_new_thread(readtoq, (cat.stdout, q))
cat.stdin.write(myVar)
cat.stdin.close()
cat.wait()
myNewVar = q.get()
assert myNewVar == myVar
print len(myNewVar), "bytes piped around."
