The attached is a patch that uses the _fileno/_get_osfhandle approach. 
This doesn't address the stdin fallback, or error handling if opening 
termin fails; however, it should be no worse than what's there now, and 
it fixes the immediate problem.

I'm still thinking about the fallback in terms of a mintty-type 
environment, but I wanted to get this patch out there in the meantime.
