use Popen instead of getstatusoutput to check for libedit. getstatusoutput uses os.popen, and is vulnerable to EINTR weirdness in environments such as gdb or PyQt. Exponential falloff is also used, to prevent waiting forever or firing requests too fast, though I haven't had it fire more than once after moving to Popen. closes gh-473

.. _forking:
==========================================
Making your own copy (fork) of ipython
==========================================
You need to do this only once. The instructions here are very similar
to the instructions at http://help.github.com/forking/ - please see that
page for more detail. We're repeating some of it here just to give the
specifics for the ipython_ project, and to suggest some default names.
Set up and configure a github_ account
======================================
If you don't have a github_ account, go to the github_ page, and make one.
You then need to configure your account to allow write access - see the
``Generating SSH keys`` help on `github help`_.
Create your own forked copy of ipython_
=========================================
#. Log into your github_ account.
#. Go to the ipython_ github home at `ipython github`_.
#. Click on the *fork* button:

Now, after a short pause and some 'Hardcore forking action', you
should find yourself at the home page for your own forked copy of ipython_.
