I can reproduce the issue on macOS 11.1.
As you write:
- running /dev/fd/X as a script fails silently if it refers to an smallish file
- reading /dev/fd/X referring to the same smallish files works fine (the
``open('/dev/fd/9').read()`` scenario.
If I read the code in Modules/main.c correctly the main difference between the
two scenario's is that the first scenario using the C stdio library to read the
file (in pymain_run_file_obj), and the latter uses the normal Python io stack.
Reading /dev/fd/9 works fine when using either stdio or open/read in C code.
I have not yet tried to untangle the layers of C code from pymain_run_file_obj
to actually reading the script, there might be something there that sheds light
on what's going on here.
I'm not yet willing to claim this is an OS bug as I've failed to reproduce this
outside of Python.
