[juj]

When Python 2.7 executes a Node .js application that prints to stdout and subsequently exits, Python does not capture full output printed by that application.

Steps to repro:

1. Download and unzip http://clb.demon.fi/bugs/python_proc_bug.zip
2. Run run_test.bat

Observed result: The .bat script prints:

Executing 'node jsfile.js' directly from command line. The js file outputs:
Line 1
Line 2

Executing 'jsfile.js' via a python script that calls 'node jsfile.js'. Now the js file outputs:
Line 1

Expected result: The second run via invoking from python should also print "Line 2".

Tested on Python v2.7.8 64-bit and Node v0.10.28 on Windows 7 64-bit.

Further testing suggests that this is not a Python issue, but instead an issue in node.js, reported already earlier here nodejs/node-v0.x-archive#1669

Closing this as invalid.
