I've attached a new example source file to demonstrate the fix.


Compile the attached program with (*after* patching and installing Python):

> gcc `python-config --cflags` working2.c -o working2 `python-config --ldflags`

and run it with:

> ./working2 xterm -S/0 < /dev/null > /dev/null

(The redirection shows that it works when stdin/stdout aren't a tty.)


I looked at the most-recent revision of tokenizer.c (http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/52032b13243e/Parser/tokenizer.c) and see that the change in my patch above hasn't been made already.
