Fix for issue 7895. Avoid crashing the interpreter
when calling platform.mac_ver after calling os.fork by
reading from a system configuration file instead of
using OSX APIs.

to "sys.platform == 'mac'" and that is
dead code because it refers to a platform
that is no longer supported (and hasn't been
supported for several releases).
Fixes issue #7908 for the trunk.
* Popen() avoids ugly shell escape: target.replace('"', '\\"')
* Use proc.communicate() instead of f.stdout.read()
* Get output from stdout by splitting with ": " instead of splitting by spaces
to support filename with spaces
to return different information than the _sys_version() output
used in previous Python versions.
This also fixes issue5561: platform.python_version_tuple returns tuple of ints, should be strings
Added more tests for the various platform functions.
Turn them into unit tests, and correct an obvious typo:
(("a", "b") ("c", "d") ("e", "f"))
compiles even with the missing commas, but does not execute very well...
that function actually tests something on OSX).
- Add documentation to platform.mac_ver that explains why the middle element
of the return value will not contain useful information.
and sys.getwindowsversion() to get at the Windows version info.
For the machine and processor uname() values, use the environment variables
for these on Windows XP and later.
Change the cache for _sys_version() to take the parameter into account.
Add support for parsing the IronPython 1.0.1 sys.version value - even
though it still returns '1.0.0'; the version string no longer includes
the patch level.
Add new API linux_distribution() which supports reading the full distribution
name and also knows how to parse LSB-style release files.
Redirect the old dist() API to the new API (using the short distribution name
taken from the release file filename).
Add branch and revision to _sys_version().
Add work-around for Cygwin to libc_ver().
Add support for IronPython (thanks for Anthony Baxter) and make
Jython support more robust.
