Because of the problem described here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.matplotlib.general/20328
I modified font_manager.py to use subprocess.Popen instead of commands.getstatusoutput, since subprocess seems to deal with EINTR while the commands module does not. While looking at it, I changed the command being run from fc-list file to fc-list '' file because the former doesn't return any fonts on any system I have access to (maybe it would if I had a font whose name includes the word "file"), but the latter looks more like it is the intended command. Since the get_fontconfig_fonts function has not returned anything useful for some time (though presumably it has at some point in the past), this change might have big effects somewhere else. Would this change be appropriate for the bugfix branch? -- Jouni K.
