Use os.set_inheritable(epoll.fileno(), True) to make the file descriptor inheritable. You should find this info easily if you follow the link on "non inheritable" in epoll documentation. EPOLL_CLOEXEC becomes useless in Python 3.4. It is used internally by default if available. Removing it would break existing code, it would be harder to write code for python 3.4 and 3.3. Just update the doc.
