[issue10752] build_ssl.py is relying on unreliable behaviour of os.popen

[Tim Golden]

Tim Golden added the comment:

Here's a patch against build_ssl which uses subprocess.check_output and very slightly simplifies the output. It successfully finds ActivePerl and builds from source; and uses the svn export files when it's not.

I've targetted the development branch; don't know if there's mileage in backporting.
