New submission from Zack Weinberg:

subprocess.check_output calls Popen.communicate but does not allow you to 
specify its argument (i.e. data to send to the child process's stdin).  It 
would be nice if it were enhanced to allow this.  Proposed patch attached (to 
the 2.7 subprocess.py; should apply with trivial changes in 3.x).
