+SCons compatibility package for old Python versions
+
+This subpackage holds modules that provide backwards-compatible
+implementations of various things that we'd like to use in SCons but which
+only show up in later versions of Python than the early, old version(s)
+we still support.
+
+Other code will not generally reference things in this package through
+the SCons.compat namespace.  The modules included here add things to
+the __builtin__ namespace or the global module list so that the rest
+of our code can use the objects and names imported here regardless of
+Python version.
+
+Simply enough, things that go in the __builtin__ name space come from
+our builtins module.
+
+The rest of the things here will be in individual compatibility modules
+that are either: 1) suitably modified copies of the future modules that
+we want to use; or 2) backwards compatible re-implementations of the
+specific portions of a future module's API that we want to use.
+
+GENERAL WARNINGS:  Implementations of functions in the SCons.compat
+modules are *NOT* guaranteed to be fully compliant with these functions in
+later versions of Python.  We are only concerned with adding functionality
+that we actually use in SCons, so be wary if you lift this code for
+other uses.  (That said, making these more nearly the same as later,
+official versions is still a desirable goal, we just don't need to be
+obsessive about it.)
+
+We name the compatibility modules with an initial '_scons_' (for example,
+_scons_subprocess.py is our compatibility module for subprocess) so
+that we can still try to import the real module name and fall back to
+our compatibility module if we get an ImportError.  The import_as()
+function defined below loads the module as the "real" name (without the
+'_scons'), after which all of the "import {module}" statements in the
+rest of our code will find our pre-loaded compatibility module.

+"""Classes to represent arbitrary sets (including sets of sets).
+
+This module implements sets using dictionaries whose values are
+ignored.  The usual operations (union, intersection, deletion, etc.)
+are provided as both methods and operators.
+
+Important: sets are not sequences!  While they support 'x in s',
+'len(s)', and 'for x in s', none of those operations are unique for
+sequences; for example, mappings support all three as well.  The
+characteristic operation for sequences is subscripting with small
+integers: s[i], for i in range(len(s)).  Sets don't support
+subscripting at all.  Also, sequences allow multiple occurrences and
+their elements have a definite order; sets on the other hand don't
+record multiple occurrences and don't remember the order of element
+insertion (which is why they don't support s[i]).
+
+The following classes are provided:
+
+BaseSet -- All the operations common to both mutable and immutable
+    sets. This is an abstract class, not meant to be directly
+    instantiated.
+
+Set -- Mutable sets, subclass of BaseSet; not hashable.
+
+ImmutableSet -- Immutable sets, subclass of BaseSet; hashable.
+    An iterable argument is mandatory to create an ImmutableSet.
+
+_TemporarilyImmutableSet -- A wrapper around a Set, hashable,
+    giving the same hash value as the immutable set equivalent
+    would have.  Do not use this class directly.
+
+Only hashable objects can be added to a Set. In particular, you cannot
+really add a Set as an element to another Set; if you try, what is
+actually added is an ImmutableSet built from it (it compares equal to
+the one you tried adding).
+
+When you ask if `x in y' where x is a Set and y is a Set or
+ImmutableSet, x is wrapped into a _TemporarilyImmutableSet z, and
+what's tested is actually `z in y'.

+
+# Code history:
+#
+# - Greg V. Wilson wrote the first version, using a different approach
+#   to the mutable/immutable problem, and inheriting from dict.
+#
+# - Alex Martelli modified Greg's version to implement the current
+#   Set/ImmutableSet approach, and make the data an attribute.
+#
+# - Guido van Rossum rewrote much of the code, made some API changes,
+#   and cleaned up the docstrings.
+#
+# - Raymond Hettinger added a number of speedups and other
+#   improvements.

+r"""subprocess - Subprocesses with accessible I/O streams
+
+This module allows you to spawn processes, connect to their
+input/output/error pipes, and obtain their return codes.  This module
+intends to replace several other, older modules and functions, like:
+
+os.system
+os.spawn*
+os.popen*
+popen2.*
+commands.*
+
+Information about how the subprocess module can be used to replace these
+modules and functions can be found below.
+
+
+
+Using the subprocess module
+===========================
+This module defines one class called Popen:
+
+class Popen(args, bufsize=0, executable=None,
+            stdin=None, stdout=None, stderr=None,
+            preexec_fn=None, close_fds=False, shell=False,
+            cwd=None, env=None, universal_newlines=False,
+            startupinfo=None, creationflags=0):
+
+
+Arguments are:
+
+args should be a string, or a sequence of program arguments.  The
+program to execute is normally the first item in the args sequence or
+string, but can be explicitly set by using the executable argument.
+
+On UNIX, with shell=False (default): In this case, the Popen class
+uses os.execvp() to execute the child program.  args should normally
+be a sequence.  A string will be treated as a sequence with the string
+as the only item (the program to execute).
+
+On UNIX, with shell=True: If args is a string, it specifies the
+command string to execute through the shell.  If args is a sequence,
+the first item specifies the command string, and any additional items
+will be treated as additional shell arguments.
+
+On Windows: the Popen class uses CreateProcess() to execute the child
+program, which operates on strings.  If args is a sequence, it will be
+converted to a string using the list2cmdline method.  Please note that
+not all MS Windows applications interpret the command line the same
+way: The list2cmdline is designed for applications using the same
+rules as the MS C runtime.
+
+bufsize, if given, has the same meaning as the corresponding argument
+to the built-in open() function: 0 means unbuffered, 1 means line
+buffered, any other positive value means use a buffer of
+(approximately) that size.  A negative bufsize means to use the system
+default, which usually means fully buffered.  The default value for
+bufsize is 0 (unbuffered).
+
+stdin, stdout and stderr specify the executed programs' standard
+input, standard output and standard error file handles, respectively.
+Valid values are PIPE, an existing file descriptor (a positive
+integer), an existing file object, and None.  PIPE indicates that a
+new pipe to the child should be created.  With None, no redirection
+will occur; the child's file handles will be inherited from the
+parent.  Additionally, stderr can be STDOUT, which indicates that the
+stderr data from the applications should be captured into the same
+file handle as for stdout.
+
+If preexec_fn is set to a callable object, this object will be called
+in the child process just before the child is executed.
+
+If close_fds is true, all file descriptors except 0, 1 and 2 will be
+closed before the child process is executed.
+
+if shell is true, the specified command will be executed through the
+shell.
+
+If cwd is not None, the current directory will be changed to cwd
+before the child is executed.
+
+If env is not None, it defines the environment variables for the new
+process.
+
+If universal_newlines is true, the file objects stdout and stderr are
+opened as a text files, but lines may be terminated by any of '\n',
+the Unix end-of-line convention, '\r', the Macintosh convention or
+'\r\n', the Windows convention.  All of these external representations
+are seen as '\n' by the Python program.  Note: This feature is only
+available if Python is built with universal newline support (the
+default).  Also, the newlines attribute of the file objects stdout,
+stdin and stderr are not updated by the communicate() method.
+
+The startupinfo and creationflags, if given, will be passed to the
+underlying CreateProcess() function.  They can specify things such as
+appearance of the main window and priority for the new process.
+(Windows only)
+
+
+This module also defines two shortcut functions:
+
+call(*popenargs, **kwargs):
+    Run command with arguments.  Wait for command to complete, then
+    return the returncode attribute.
+
+    The arguments are the same as for the Popen constructor.  Example:
+
+    retcode = call(["ls", "-l"])
+
+check_call(*popenargs, **kwargs):
+    Run command with arguments.  Wait for command to complete.  If the
+    exit code was zero then return, otherwise raise
+    CalledProcessError.  The CalledProcessError object will have the
+    return code in the returncode attribute.
+
+    The arguments are the same as for the Popen constructor.  Example:
+
+    check_call(["ls", "-l"])
+
+Exceptions
+----------
+Exceptions raised in the child process, before the new program has
+started to execute, will be re-raised in the parent.  Additionally,
+the exception object will have one extra attribute called
+'child_traceback', which is a string containing traceback information
+from the childs point of view.
+
+The most common exception raised is OSError.  This occurs, for
+example, when trying to execute a non-existent file.  Applications
+should prepare for OSErrors.
+
+A ValueError will be raised if Popen is called with invalid arguments.
+
+check_call() will raise CalledProcessError, if the called process
+returns a non-zero return code.
+
+
+Security
+--------
+Unlike some other popen functions, this implementation will never call
+/bin/sh implicitly.  This means that all characters, including shell
+metacharacters, can safely be passed to child processes.
+
+
+Popen objects
+=============
+Instances of the Popen class have the following methods:
+
+poll()
+    Check if child process has terminated.  Returns returncode
+    attribute.
+
+wait()
+    Wait for child process to terminate.  Returns returncode attribute.
+
+communicate(input=None)
+    Interact with process: Send data to stdin.  Read data from stdout
+    and stderr, until end-of-file is reached.  Wait for process to
+    terminate.  The optional stdin argument should be a string to be
+    sent to the child process, or None, if no data should be sent to
+    the child.
+
+    communicate() returns a tuple (stdout, stderr).
+
+    Note: The data read is buffered in memory, so do not use this
+    method if the data size is large or unlimited.
+
+The following attributes are also available:
+
+stdin
+    If the stdin argument is PIPE, this attribute is a file object
+    that provides input to the child process.  Otherwise, it is None.
+
+stdout
+    If the stdout argument is PIPE, this attribute is a file object
+    that provides output from the child process.  Otherwise, it is
+    None.
+
+stderr
+    If the stderr argument is PIPE, this attribute is file object that
+    provides error output from the child process.  Otherwise, it is
+    None.
+
+pid
+    The process ID of the child process.
+
+returncode
+    The child return code.  A None value indicates that the process
+    hasn't terminated yet.  A negative value -N indicates that the
+    child was terminated by signal N (UNIX only).
+
+
+Replacing older functions with the subprocess module
+====================================================
+In this section, "a ==> b" means that b can be used as a replacement
+for a.
+
+Note: All functions in this section fail (more or less) silently if
+the executed program cannot be found; this module raises an OSError
+exception.
+
+In the following examples, we assume that the subprocess module is
+imported with "from subprocess import *".
+
+
+Replacing /bin/sh shell backquote
+---------------------------------
+output=`mycmd myarg`
+==>
+output = Popen(["mycmd", "myarg"], stdout=PIPE).communicate()[0]
+
+
+Replacing shell pipe line
+-------------------------
+output=`dmesg | grep hda`
+==>
+p1 = Popen(["dmesg"], stdout=PIPE)
+p2 = Popen(["grep", "hda"], stdin=p1.stdout, stdout=PIPE)
+output = p2.communicate()[0]
+
+
+Replacing os.system()
+---------------------
+sts = os.system("mycmd" + " myarg")
+==>
+p = Popen("mycmd" + " myarg", shell=True)
+pid, sts = os.waitpid(p.pid, 0)
+
+Note:
+
+* Calling the program through the shell is usually not required.
+
+* It's easier to look at the returncode attribute than the
+  exitstatus.
+
+A more real-world example would look like this:
+
+try:
+    retcode = call("mycmd" + " myarg", shell=True)
+    if retcode < 0:
+        print >>sys.stderr, "Child was terminated by signal", -retcode
+    else:
+        print >>sys.stderr, "Child returned", retcode
+except OSError, e:
+    print >>sys.stderr, "Execution failed:", e
+
+
+Replacing os.spawn*
+-------------------
+P_NOWAIT example:
+
+pid = os.spawnlp(os.P_NOWAIT, "/bin/mycmd", "mycmd", "myarg")
+==>
+pid = Popen(["/bin/mycmd", "myarg"]).pid
+
+
+P_WAIT example:
+
+retcode = os.spawnlp(os.P_WAIT, "/bin/mycmd", "mycmd", "myarg")
+==>
+retcode = call(["/bin/mycmd", "myarg"])
+
+
+Vector example:
+
+os.spawnvp(os.P_NOWAIT, path, args)
+==>
+Popen([path] + args[1:])
+
+
+Environment example:
+
+os.spawnlpe(os.P_NOWAIT, "/bin/mycmd", "mycmd", "myarg", env)
+==>
+Popen(["/bin/mycmd", "myarg"], env={"PATH": "/usr/bin"})
+
+
+Replacing os.popen*
+-------------------
+pipe = os.popen(cmd, mode='r', bufsize)
+==>
+pipe = Popen(cmd, shell=True, bufsize=bufsize, stdout=PIPE).stdout
+
+pipe = os.popen(cmd, mode='w', bufsize)
+==>
+pipe = Popen(cmd, shell=True, bufsize=bufsize, stdin=PIPE).stdin
+
+
+(child_stdin, child_stdout) = os.popen2(cmd, mode, bufsize)
+==>
+p = Popen(cmd, shell=True, bufsize=bufsize,
+          stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, close_fds=True)
+(child_stdin, child_stdout) = (p.stdin, p.stdout)
+
+
+(child_stdin,
+ child_stdout,
+ child_stderr) = os.popen3(cmd, mode, bufsize)
+==>
+p = Popen(cmd, shell=True, bufsize=bufsize,
+          stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE, close_fds=True)
+(child_stdin,
+ child_stdout,
+ child_stderr) = (p.stdin, p.stdout, p.stderr)
+
+
+(child_stdin, child_stdout_and_stderr) = os.popen4(cmd, mode, bufsize)
+==>
+p = Popen(cmd, shell=True, bufsize=bufsize,
+          stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE, stderr=STDOUT, close_fds=True)
+(child_stdin, child_stdout_and_stderr) = (p.stdin, p.stdout)
+
+
+Replacing popen2.*
+------------------
+Note: If the cmd argument to popen2 functions is a string, the command
+is executed through /bin/sh.  If it is a list, the command is directly
+executed.
+

+The popen2.Popen3 and popen3.Popen4 basically works as subprocess.Popen,
+except that:
+
+* subprocess.Popen raises an exception if the execution fails
+* the capturestderr argument is replaced with the stderr argument.
+* stdin=PIPE and stdout=PIPE must be specified.
+* popen2 closes all filedescriptors by default, but you have to specify
+  close_fds=True with subprocess.Popen.

+    Object for wrapping/filling text.  The public interface consists of
+    the wrap() and fill() methods; the other methods are just there for
+    subclasses to override in order to tweak the default behaviour.
+    If you want to completely replace the main wrapping algorithm,
+    you'll probably have to override _wrap_chunks().
+
+    Several instance attributes control various aspects of wrapping:
+      width (default: 70)
+        the maximum width of wrapped lines (unless break_long_words
+        is false)
+      initial_indent (default: "")
+        string that will be prepended to the first line of wrapped
+        output.  Counts towards the line's width.
+      subsequent_indent (default: "")
+        string that will be prepended to all lines save the first
+        of wrapped output; also counts towards each line's width.
+      expand_tabs (default: true)
+        Expand tabs in input text to spaces before further processing.
+        Each tab will become 1 .. 8 spaces, depending on its position in
+        its line.  If false, each tab is treated as a single character.
+      replace_whitespace (default: true)
+        Replace all whitespace characters in the input text by spaces
+        after tab expansion.  Note that if expand_tabs is false and
+        replace_whitespace is true, every tab will be converted to a
+        single space!
+      fix_sentence_endings (default: false)
+        Ensure that sentence-ending punctuation is always followed
+        by two spaces.  Off by default because the algorithm is
+        (unavoidably) imperfect.
+      break_long_words (default: true)
+        Break words longer than 'width'.  If false, those words will not
+        be broken, and some lines might be longer than 'width'.

+Compatibility idioms for __builtin__ names
+
+This module adds names to the __builtin__ module for things that we want
+to use in SCons but which don't show up until later Python versions than
+the earliest ones we support.
+
+This module checks for the following __builtin__ names:
+
+        all()
+        any()
+        bool()
+        dict()
+        True
+        False
+        zip()
+
+Implementations of functions are *NOT* guaranteed to be fully compliant
+with these functions in later versions of Python.  We are only concerned
+with adding functionality that we actually use in SCons, so be wary
+if you lift this code for other uses.  (That said, making these more
+nearly the same as later, official versions is still a desirable goal,
+we just don't need to be obsessive about it.)
+
+If you're looking at this with pydoc and various names don't show up in
+the FUNCTIONS or DATA output, that means those names are already built in
+to this version of Python and we don't need to add them from this module.
