Quick question.

Having eliminated some of the other variables in my code, I'm wondering if  
the following might cause a problem flushing the stdout buffer:

    proc = Popen (['ant'] + self.args, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE)
    (out, err) = proc.communicate()

Is it possible that the Popen object has somehow mangled things?


For what it's worth, I'm also passing '-u' to the interpreter with no  
effect.

Best,
