Summary: Restarting Shell (sometimes) causes sub-process to hang

Initial Comment:
When restarting the Shell windows (Using Ctrl+F6), 
the sub-process intermittantly hangs in rpc.py with 
an unhandled exception (usually "connection reset 
by peer" or "Broken pipe") from socket.send() in 
putmessage(). 
 
When PyShell restarts, it interupts and shutsdown 
the sub-process, then closes the socket before 
waiting for the subprocess to exit. 
 
Proposed solution, reverse the order of 
self.rpcclt.close() and os.wait() in 
restart_subprocess().

machine
