(A) How should we support support where os.setinheritable() is not supported? Can we announce that os.setinheritable() is always available or not? Does such platform exist? FDCLOEXEC is POSIX: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/fcntl.html
Ok, but this information does not help me. Does Python support non-POSIX platforms? (Windows has HANDLE_FLAG_INHERIT.)
If we cannot answer to my question, it's safer to leave os.get/set_inheritable() optional (need hasattr in tests for example).
