Bug description:/bin/sh hardcoded in proc_open.c

Description:
------------
I've managed to cross-compile PHP 5.3.8 for ARM platforms (to be run on
rooted Android phones).

The trouble is that when you execute a system('pwd'), the command doesn't
print any output (and it doesn't execute pwd).

A strace indicates that PHP tries to execute /bin/sh -c pwd in fact.

However, on Android phones, /bin/sh doesn't exist (like in Linux distros),
but in fact the path is /system/bin/sh.

Mounting / as read-write and creating /bin/sh to point to /system/bin/sh is
more difficult than allowing a configuration key/value pair to point to the
executable itself. 
Or use the SHELL environment variables ?

It should not be hardcoded (I found this only using strace - there's no
error message in case the command fails because /bin/sh is not found) - or
at least, it should use the SHELL environment variable in case /bin/sh
doesn't exist).

Expected result:
----------------
I expect system('pwd') to work.
