os.urandom() only tries to make the os.random() file descriptor non
inheritable, but there is no guarantee. The test fails on too many operating
systems: Windows, OS X 10.5, OpenIndiana.
This issue is correctly fixed in Python 3.4 with the PEP 446. Upgrade to Python
3.4 is you need stronger guarantees.

#8278: In the Windows implementation of stat() and utime(),
use time_t instead of int. This gives support for dates after 2038,
at least when compiled with VS2003 or later, where time_t is 64bit.

Close subprocess pipes in _kill. Fixes a number of ResourceWarnings.
........
Rather than depending on some sleep value, start up an interpreter
as a subprocess and communicate with it. Because subprocess pipes
can't be read from until EOF and I want to read from them before that,
use ctypes to peek by using PeekNamedPipe. Once the subprocess has
written the message, then it is ready to roll and accept signals.
After that, kill it.
David Bolen's buildbot isn't know for it's speed, and it seems that we
may have been trying to kill the subprocess before it was fully
initialized. I ran with this change on the bot itself and it seemed to work.
On slower Windows machines, waiting 0.1 seconds can sometimes not be
enough for a subprocess to start and be ready to accept signals, causing
the test to fail. One buildbot is also choking on input()/EOFError so
that was changed to not depend on input.
os.kill takes one of two newly added signals, CTRL_C_EVENT and
CTRL_BREAK_EVENT, or any integer value. The events are a special case
which work with subprocess console applications which implement a
special console control handler. Any other value but those two will
cause os.kill to use TerminateProcess, outright killing the process.
This change adds win_console_handler.py, which is a script to implement
SetConsoleCtrlHandler and applicable handler function, using ctypes.
subprocess also gets another attribute which is a necessary flag to
creationflags in Popen in order to send the CTRL events.

Fixes issue #7999: os.setreuid() and os.setregid() would refuse to accept
a -1 parameter on some platforms such as OS X.
