517219 - pythonce has issues reusing a log file handle

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

in order for us to capture the stdout from popen in pythonce, we need to open a file handle and pass it to stdout in popen:
handle = open(<filename>, "w")
for cmd in tests:
  proc = popen(cmd, stdout=handle)
handle.close()

Since we have had issues with creating multiple files, it would make sense to just open one file handle and write all data to the same file.  In doing this, we found that only the data from the first call to popen existed in the file.  It appears that the file handle is open in python before and after each test, also using a debugger we have the same value for the file handle when writing to the file, but writefile() throws an error.
