[issue8599] _execvpe behaves inconsistently when PATH includes a filename

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray rdmur...@bitdance.com added the comment:

The python functions are thin wrappers around the system calls, and are 
reporting the result of calling the corresponding system call.  The fact that 
the shell chooses to catch both errors and report a single one would be 
equivalent to, say, the cmd module doing something similar.  It would not be 
appropriate for the os module to combine the distinct errors into one.
