They are not used as base classes by another tests so they
can safely be removed.

sqlite3.OptimizedUnicode is an alias for str in Python 3 and
its behavior is already tested in CheckOptimizedUnicode in
Lib/sqlite3/test/factory.py.

sqlite3.OptimizedUnicode was undocumented in 0fc10a33eb4c and
probably added back with the result of a bad merge.

Previously, when IDLE was started from a console or by import, a cascade
of warnings was emitted.  Patch by Serhiy Storchaka.

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.
