While I'm at it, find_library also tries creating temp files when running gcc and other issues mention trouble running gcc or propose running ld:
http://bugs.python.org/issue9998
http://bugs.python.org/issue5289

IMHO, calling binutils/gcc is troublesome, it's not necessarily installed on production systems and creating tempfiles when running a program just to locate a library is fragile at best.
