The test_run_abort() testcase in test_subprocess.py
produces a core file on Unix systems, even though the
test is successful.  This can be confusing or alarming
to someone who runs 'make test' and then finds that the
Python interpreter apparently crashed.

Tested on Red Hat Linux 9 on x86.

From reading the patch, the fix looks good.  Do you have
commit privileges, or do I need to check in the change?
