[issue3593] subprocess + stdout redirection + wait + svn= hang

[Gregory P. Smith]

Gregory P. Smith <greg at krypto.org> added the comment:

This is not a subprocess bug.  the os's pipe buffer filled up so the
process never terminated to be noticed by wait.  see:

http://docs.python.org/dev/library/subprocess.html#subprocess.Popen.wait

use communicate() instead of wait().
