Summary: popen3 hangs on windows

Initial Comment:
The following hangs on windows:

(i,o,e)=popen('python test.py')
result=o.read()+e.read()

...where test.py is the test.py of a Zope 3 CVS
checkout. I suspected a Zope 3 problem, but Thomas
Guettler also expereinced this in a different context:

popen3() of the python (2.1.2) which comes with zope
hangs on W2K:
 
 (stdin, stdout, stderr)=popen3('wvWare -x wvware.xml
foo.doc')
 text=stdout.read()

Then again, having seen bug #481896, I'm not sure this
is confined to windows.

Any ideas?
