Message141653
suprocess.Popen on POSIX (using _posixsubprocess Module) has a good chance of repeatedly closing the same file descriptor if the descriptor for stdin is also used for stdout and/or stderr. Only stdout and stderr are checked for equality with one another.
This breaks webbrowser.open for me, as the browser remote has all three descriptors redirected from/to /dev/null. This breaks "pydoc -p". I've taken this scenario and turned it into a unit test, which you find attached together with a proposed fix.
On my currently installed Python 3.2, the unit tests results in this traceback (and two more like it for other test classes):
ERROR: test_inouterr_fileobj (__main__.ProcessTestCase)
