And yet it does, in Ubuntu < Karmic.
All that the child process is running is (or should be):
time.sleep(1)
while True:
line = raw_input("> ")
sys.stdout.write("< " + line + '\n')
os._exit(0)
Though I may be mistaken, none of this appears to use the X connection.
Comparison to the code in comment 33 shows that this same code executes just
fine in the child process so long as the child process doesn't have the gtk or
vte objects. It's certainly possible that there's a problem in GTK, VTE, or
their python bindings, but it seems strange to me that this problem was
introduced at the same time as a similar one in Qt.
