For added fun: at least one part of the standard library doesn't expect None returns from read() in the buffering layer.
>>> import os
>>> r, w = os.pipe2(os.O_NONBLOCK)
>>> f = os.fdopen(r, 'r')
>>> f.read()
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
 File "/home/izbyshev/workspace/cpython/Lib/codecs.py", line 321, in decode
 data = self.buffer + input
TypeError: can't concat NoneType to bytes
Note that nonblock-none.patch doesn't seem to address that.
