This bug has brought up a broader issue.  the pipe2 syscall on Linux is very new.  It is perfectly reasonable to expect a Python binary will be compiled against a C library that has a pipe2() function but run on a system with an older (pre 2.6.27) linux kernel.  I have many systems like that at work.

I'm going to make subprocess_cloexec_pipe check for a not implemented error from the pipe2 call and use the fallback pipe+fcntl code in that case instead.
