R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: For the record (for people reading this ticket later), the removal of the python version of the unix subprocess code was discussed on IRC, and it was clarified there that the reason for removing it is not that it duplicates the C code. We like having python implementations of C code where possible, but the key here is "where possible". The python version of the Unix subprocess code cannot be made to work correctly, it is necessary to drop into C to get the semantics correct.
