Ronald is correct.  Apple added O_CLOEXEC to OS X in 10.7.  For compatibility reasons, the python.org 64-bit installers for OS X currently are built to be compatible with OS X 10.6 on up and do not do runtime checks for OS features only available on newer releases.  If you need O_CLOEXEC support, you could use a Python from another distributor, such as Homebrew or MacPorts, or you could build it from source yourself.
