Title: Features/use py27 subprocess

Hardcore approach to travis-ci failures under python 2.6, use 2.7's subprocess module within our shell test cases. We leave the subprocess namespace alone so that any other module importing subprocess will still use the 2.6's version instead of 2.7.

Should we really do this?
