New submission from Popa Claudiu <pcmantic...@gmail.com>: In multiprocessing.connection, when using a Windows named pipe on a Unix platform, the following error will occur. This should not happen, the format of the address should be validated somehow before. The following error will occur because PipeListener is not defined under any platform different than win32.
