True. If I handle -EAGAIN inside my test-script it will work,
but this is not a standart behaviour users expect I think. As
I pointed in another message the python subprocess opens pipe
in blocking mode and I suppose we should do the same, otherwise
users will have to keep in mind that our pipes are opened in
nonblocking mode, which is inconvenient.
