Akira Li added the comment:

Two minor details:

1. It is possible that `fileno(stdout) != 1` even in C [1]. 
   I don't know what happens if the code from the answer is
   run on Windows.

   In principle, it may break eryksun's workaround. I don't 
   know how likely it is in practice.

2. you can redirect at the file descriptor level in Python [2] 
   using os.dup2(). I don't know whether the code in the 
   answer works on Windows.
