The Gentoo buildbot on which O_CLOEXEC test failed also chokes on test_pipe2:
[ 10/355] test_posix
test test_posix failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):
File
"/var/lib/buildslave/3.x.murray-gentoo-wide/build/Lib/test/test_posix.py", line
487, in test_pipe2
r, w = os.pipe2()
OSError: [Errno 38] Function not implemented
If've added a test to skip this test on Linux kernels older than 2.6.27: like
O_CLOEXEC, the problem is that the libc defines pipe2() while the kernel
doesn't support it, so when syscall() is called it bails out with ENOSYS.
(This buildbot should really have its libc/kernel upgraded...)
