[issue1731717] race condition in subprocess module

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray <rdmurray at bitdance.com> added the comment:

I have confirmed that none of the original test cases referenced here or
in the referenced issues fails on python 2.5.4, 2.6.2, trunk, or py3k on
linux.

The test case attached to this ticket I cannot test as I don't
understand how one would run it (and exim appears to be involved).

Given the discussion (specifically msg32219) I think this ticket should
be closed as fixed; unless, Yonas, you can provide a reproducible test
case that does not involve third party software, or someone else can
reproduce your exim case.

If someone wants to propose a patch to refactor subprocess, IMO that
should be opened as a new feature request ticket.
