in thread Capturing STDERR from a piped open

AFAICT, you're trying to feed the external program's stdin through a here-doc, which looks quite hopeless to me. Read what the Good Cookbook has to say about accessing stdin, stdout, and stderr of another process (recipe 16.9, pp. 639-641).

Update: I guess it was not so hopeless after all. :-/
