Looking at the subprocess.py code it occurred to me that it never checks
if the value of self.pid returned by os.fork is -1, this would mean that
later it runs waitpid with -1 as the first argument, putting it into
promiscuous (wait for any process in the group) mode.  This seems like a
bad idea...
