Comment(by Snark):
If there is a kash on your system, there shouldn't be any problem using
it. Just because it doesn't come from sage doesn't mean it's wrong.
My patch makes sage less fragile (less error cases) and more portable (use
of 'command' to test the presence of an executable) and less surprising
(don't go against what sage-env says it PATH). It doesn't have the side
effect of running something out-of-sage when it's available in-sage. What
exactly is the problem?
[I can't make more patches public : I already made public those that
looked good (see #12623, #12624, #12639 in addition of this one), and the
rest were too hackish and are probably obsolete now. Besides, this one
patch here has enough merits of its own.]
