Sorry, I loose interest on this backport. The patch is large, the risk of regression is high, the goal is non-obvious. I'm not sure that such bugfix is still useful since Python 2.7 is old and developers know how to workaround Python 2.7 limitations.
The problem of non-inheritable file descriptors is that it requires to modify a lot of code, not only a few functions.
For all these reasons, I prefer to close the issue as WONTFIX.
