New submission from Nehal Patel <nehal.a...@gmail.com>:
The following code produces incorrect behavior:
with gzip.open("foo.gz") as gz:
res = subprocess.run("cat", stdin=gz, capture_output=True)
the contents of res.stdout are identical to the contents of "foo.gz"
It seems the subprocess somehow gets a hold of the underlying file descriptor
pointing to the compressed file, and ends up being fed the compressed bytes.
