test_commands fails on SGI.
The problem is that the test expects /bin/ls to be a
file, whereas on IRIX it's a symbolic link.

For completeness, here is the output of running the
test:
+ ./python ../Lib/test/regrtest.py test_commands.py
test_commands
test test_commands failed -- Traceback (most recent
call last):
File "../Lib/test/test_commands.py", line 43, in
test_getstatus
self.assert_(re.match(pat, getstatus("/bin/ls"),
re.VERBOSE))
File
"/ufs/sjoerd/src/Python/dist/src/Lib/unittest.py", line
256, in failUnless
if not expr: raise self.failureException, msg
AssertionError

1 test failed:
test_commands

Related to [ bpo-497160 ] test_commands assumes ls is in /bin.

Assigned to Fred Drake, who wrote the test suite.
