IEP hangs on Windows with Python 3.3

[GoogleCodeExporter]

In Windows XP (32 bit) with Python 3.3.
Run "pythonw.exe -m iep"

IEP stalls. The logger prints:
Exception while handling event:
[WinError 6] De ingang is ongeldig
line 1016 of c:\Python33\lib\subprocess.py

Sprinkling some debug code in subprocess.py I get a traceback:

_make_inheritable line 1021 in c:\Python33\lib\subprocess.py
_get_handles line 966 in c:\Python33\lib\subprocess.py
__init__ line 784 in c:\Python33\lib\subprocess.py
startKernel line 354 in .\iep\iepcore\kernelbroker.py
mainLoopIter line 513 in .\iep\iepcore\kernelbroker.py

It looks it tries to make a copy of the stdin handle. A solution seems to be to 
set stdin to PIPE when creating the process.
