base.bbclass: Replace os.system with subprocess call.
Often gzip is reporting broken pipe errors with do_unpack of tar.gz files. If you use the commands described above to extract a tar.gz file, gzip sometimes emits a Broken pipe error message. This can safely be ignored if tar extracted all files without any other error message. We do not let python install its SIGPIPE handler and use subprocess call to invoke the command. This is based on the following python bug report. http://bugs.python.org/issue1652 Signed-off-by: Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com>
