Can you please explain what the bug is in Python; that is, what exactly was
wrong with os.read?

Benjamin Peterson added the comment:
This is not a Python bug. Linux is just not accepting 0 as a valid size
argument to read(). You don't see this using libc.read because you don't check
errno. Just don't call os.read() if size == 0.

New submission from Louis RIVIERE:
A call to os.read that used to work on older Linux kernel, doesn't anymore with
newer Linux kernel.
As a workaroud we can use libc.read (ctypes) instead of os.read.
But I feel like os.read should work, as it used to.
The code (and comments) can be seen here :
