Today, subprocess allow to change directory only by using its name. What if I have only file descriptor referring to that dir?

It will be nice if such feture will be implemented. Now, I use preexc_fn to call os.fchdir() by hand.

We should handle close_fds *AFTER* calling fchdir() :)

Do not understand what should be done in order to fix that...

It will be nice if I can create pull request by myself
