[issue19612] test_subprocess: sporadic failure of test_communicate_epipe() on Windows 8

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor added the comment:

Oh, it looks like my patch is not enough: the test still fails sometimes :-/ It looks like the process was still running (poll() didn't return None) whereas stdin.write() got an OSError(errno.EINVAL).
