 On some python versions, chutney's call to subprocess.check_output()
 results in the following error:
 {{{
 Unexpected keyword argument 'bufsize'…
 }}}
 https://github.com/torproject/chutney/pull/68#issuecomment-614596946

 The check_output() documentation is unclear about which arguments are
 supported: it simply says that most arguments to Popen() are supported.
 (And bufsize is an argument to Popen().):
 https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/subprocess.html#subprocess.check_output
 https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/subprocess.html#subprocess.Popen

 I think our best option here is to remove the bufsize argument, and accept
 the default buffered behaviour.
