[issue3210] subprocess.Popen does not release process handles if process cannot be started

[Geoffrey Bache]

Geoffrey Bache <gjb1002 at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

A note on workarounds, the garbage collector seems to release the
handles when the function exits, so removing the file in a caller works
for me. However Tim's proposed fix with os.close didn't do so.
