 This is a followup to #8486, which uses {{{os.system('which xelatex')}}}
 to see if XeLaTeX is available. With #8474 now merged, we should use
 {{{have_program}}} to do that, and also replace other uses of
 {{{os.system}}} with appropriate {{{subprocess}}} replacements, since we
 are [http://docs.python.org/library/os.html#os.system supposed to use
 subprocess, and not os.system]
