This is a platform specific bug.  Only noticed this on NetBSD 6.1 x86-32 on a VirtualBox machine.

To me, the patches for NetBSD do not look relevant to subprocess or core stuff.
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/pkgsrc/lang/python27/patches/?only_with_tag=MAIN


Test:

#!/usr/pkg/bin/python
import subprocess
subprocess.Popen(['true'])
print('Program finished.')
# END OF FILE

On an unaffected platform it will print "Program finished." and exit, on an affected platform it will print "Program finished." and hang.

I really need a "stupid"-helmet today.

Reopen if you can experience the same bug on a different platform.
