Bug report
Bug description:
While inspecting the code for finding the causes of the issues of my build for CYGWIN, I found this piece of code:
cpython/Modules/_posixsubprocess.c
Lines 66 to 70 in 5c3deca
CYGWIN supports
/dev/fdand not/dev/self/fdas you can see here:so a tiny fix is needed for adding
__CYGWIN__to the list of platforms to support the rigth entry with the set of file descriptors open in a process.CPython versions tested on:
CPython main branch
Operating systems tested on:
Windows
