Do we know why the process hangs or appears to hang?  What happens with

#    cmd = 'sage -docbuild%s --update-mtimes reference html'%jsmath
    cmd = 'sage -docbuild%s --update-mtimes reference html -v3'%jsmath
    print cmd
    proc = subprocess.Popen([cmd], shell=True)
#    proc = subprocess.Popen([cmd], stdout=subprocess.PIPE, shell=True)

in sage-clone?  Is Sphinx simply rebuilding the reference manual?

(Or is the warning at

http://docs.python.org/library/subprocess.html#popen-objects

relevant?)
