Replace os.popen() with subprocess.Popen. Based on patch by Victor Stinner. If the "gcc", "cc" or "objdump" command is not available, the code was supposed to raise an OSError exception. But there was a bug in the code. The shell code returns the exit code 10 if the required command is missing, and the code tries to check for the status 10. The problem is that os.popen() doesn't return the exit code directly, but a status which should be processed by os.WIFEXITED() and os.WEXITSTATUS(). In practice, the exception was never raised. The OSError exception was not documented and ctypes.util.find_library() is expected to return None if the library is not found.
