I now have an application-level implementation of os.wait() complete. It's built on top of os.waitpid(), but according to the documentation I've found, the behavior should be the same.

Thank you !

+ def wait(): + import os + return os.waitpid(-1, 0)

It's more a general issue with app_posix.py, but I think that it should avoid these costly "import os" inside application-level functions. You already have the posix module imported (see the start of app_posix.py), so you can return posix.waitpid(-1, 0). The same comment applies to other places too, e.g. popenfile.close().
