As expected, I'm unable to reproduce the bug on my Windows VM, even using --forever during 1 hour:
python -m test test_subprocess -v --timeout=120 --forever.

I also have seen test_subprocess hangs on both macOS and on Debian Linux on both 3.6 and master, as recently as 3.6.3 and 3.7.0a1 but not with current heads.  After some experimenting and bisecting, I tracked the fix down to the mock os.waitpid fixes for bpo-31178 (git11045c9d8a and gitfae0512e58). So perhaps this issue can be closed.

Oh, that's a very good news. Thanks!
