process.py problems

I guess this really is a problem.  I found that it sometimes hangs on
p.stdout.read().

>>> p = process.ProcessOpen("cleartool lsvob -s")
>>> p.stdout.read()
'\\import_test\n\\pvob\n\\vob\n\\adminvob\n\\adminvob2\n'
>>> p = process.ProcessOpen("cleartool lsview -l")
>>> p.stdout.read()
*** just hangs here ***
