Alexander Belopolsky <belopol...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:
In python 2.x, sys.stdin.flush() is more or less equivalent to C fflush(stdin). The behavior of fflush() on streams that are open for reading only is undefined. [1] Python 3.x io does not use C stdio library and therefore it is not surprising that the behavior is different.
