> What's wrong with working around this bug by reading a smaller amount? How much data is there supposed to be?

This makes sense for working around the issue.  Even in the blocking-read case, such as in subprocess.Popen, attempting to read a 1MB chunk of data in a single os.read call is unhelpful anyway - see http://bugs.python.org/issue15918.  Also, the 1MB read forces os.read() to unnecessarily allocate a huge !MB buffer (even if only for a short lifetime)
