Merge pull request #2148 from bfroehle/no_more_os_system win32 iptest: Use subprocess.Popen() instead of os.system(). The call to `os.system` in `iptest` prevents us from easily setting `$IPYTHONDIR` to a temporary directory. In theory we should be able to use `subprocess.Popen` instead of `os.system` in Windows. This would unify the code structure and make it easy to pass in a different environment. Note that Python < 2.7 does not have `os.kill`. I've attempted to work around this by using `ctypes` to kill any living processes.

Purpose
=======
This file documents backwards-incompatible changes to the IPython API,
including user-visible changes of commands, magics, etc.
It should be filled in reverse chronological order, with one section for each
release (which means changes since the previous release).
Version 0.8.2
=============
Changes made since version 0.8.1 was released:
* %pushd/%popd behave differently; now "pushd /foo" pushes CURRENT directory
and jumps to /foo. The current behaviour is closer to the documented
behaviour, and should not trip anyone.
Version 0.8.3
=============
* pydb is now disabled by default (due to %run -d problems). You can enable
it by passing -pydb command line argument to IPython. Note that setting
it in config file won't work.
