This fails on FreeBSD, and the leaked fd comes from Python's random. I've attached the test program from LLDB. To reproduce: - Build test program and confirm it returns 0: % clang main.c && ./a.out % echo $? 0 - Invoke it from python without using random and confirm it returns 0: >>> import os >>> os.system("./a.out") 0 - Invoke it from python with random: >>> import os, random >>> os.system("./a.out") File descriptor 4 is open. 512 --- Comment #1 from Bugzilla Automation --- Auto-assigned to maintainer python@FreeBSD.org
