[issue12085] subprocess.Popen.__del__ raises AttributeError if __init__ was called with an invalid argument list

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

Reading Antoine's message more carefully, and the cited doc line, the generic fix to prevent the warning would be

try:
 <__del__ body>
except Exception:
  pass

The question is, do we only want to block the warning when someone calls Popen with the wrong number of arguments, or always?
