New submission from Xavier de Gaye <xdeg...@gmail.com>:

The call to subprocess.Popen() in collect_cc() of Lib/test/pythoninfo.py raises 
an exception when the compiler that has been used to build python is not 
present on the host running python. In that case pythoninfo prints a stack 
trace and exits with an error.

On the other side if the execution of the compiler to get its version fails, 
the error is silently ignored. It seems the exception should be ignored as well.
