PR 11931 experimented other tests:
return os.path.isfile(path) and os.access(path, os.X_OK)
and:
is_exe = False
with open(path, 'rb') as fp:
s = fp.read(2)
is_exe = s != b'MZ'
return os.path.isfile(path) and is_exe
I'm not sure that it's safe. Windows support a wide range of programs: .COM,
.EXE, .VBS, .BAT, etc. It's hard to get a complete list.
