[issue18121] antigravity leaks subprocess.Popen object

Richard Oudkerk report at bugs.python.org

Richard Oudkerk added the comment:

Presumably this is caused by the fact that Popen.__del__() ressurects self by appending self to _active if the process is still alive.

On Windows this is unnecessary.  On Unix it would be more sensible to just append the *pid* to _active.
