Christian Heimes added the comment:
which('sh') isn't correct here. 'which' searches in all PATH environ parts.
However the shell must be looked up in CS_PATH only.

'getconf PATH' queries confstr(_CS_PATH).
I suggest that you modify the POSIX part to:
path = os.confstr("CS_PATH")
which('sh', path=path)
