[issue30392] default webbrowser fails on macOS Sierra 10.12.5

[Ronald Oussoren]

Ronald Oussoren added the comment:

The alternative to filing a RADAR is to just use the open command instead of osascript (basically what's suggested in msg293950 but directly using subprocess.check_call(["/usr/bin/open", ...]) instead of involving osascript).

For 3.7 it might be useful to drop usage of osascript altogether although that would result in some loss of functionality (/usr/bin/open cannot control if the URL should open in a new window or not).
