procutil: back out 8403cc54bc83 (make ....procutil.stderr unbuffered) Changeset 8403cc54bc83 introduced code that opens a second file object referring to the stderr file descriptor. This broke tests on Windows. The reason is that on Windows, sys.stderr is buffered and procutil.stderr closed the file descriptor when it got garbage collected before sys.stderr had the chance to flush buffered data. `procutil.stdout` had the same problem for a long time, but we didn’t realize, as in CI test runs, stdout is not a TTY and in this case no second file object is opened.

Build Status Code Coverage

This library provides encoding and decoding for the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) (RFC 7049) serialization format.

There exists another Python CBOR implementation (cbor) which is faster on CPython due to its C extensions. On PyPy, cbor2 and cbor are almost identical in performance. The other implementation also lacks documentation and a comprehensive test suite, does not support most standard extension tags and is known to crash (segfault) when passed a cyclic structure (say, a list containing itself).
