The interest is for python3, I don’t think windows piglit works with python2 anyway. The README file lists python3 as a requirement for windows. So, I did some simple tests with Popen() on windows, and it looks like commnicate() understands the timeout argument, and proc.kill() seems to work (at least for simple things, like “sleep”). Maybe python3 support changed between the time you wrote the code and now? I’m using Python 3.6.3.
