The S_ISDIR test is to prevent the case

  python < /etc

Is it really possible to invoke Python in such a way on CE? If not, it
would be better if the entire test wasn't performed on CE. If it does
get performed, I think it would be better if the code kept a matching
number of parentheses (i.e. don't incorporate the opening curly bracket
into the conditional).
